Inspirational! This…read moreis the second year I've flown up to Seattle to check out this event! This is the first year to actually complete it! Congrats Jim C. (http://www.yelp.com/user_details?userid=4TByNfzySEQ0K9nglTaJzQ ) YOU ROCK and you're my idol for finishing this Tri and making me think about getting of my fat @$$ and doing something like this at some point in the future! 2000+ jumped into some seriously cold cold water!!! SWIM: 1/2 Mile BIKE: 12+ Miles with 50% being uphill RUN: 3 Miles (~5K+) For those, not wanting to do a full Sprint Triathlon, Kirkland offers a "TRI-IT" Triathalon with a shorter 1/4 mile swim. I like the idea. Maybe if i learn to swim better I'll do this event one day soon!!! Congrats Jim on finishing this event that in itself is a huge VICTORY!!! pix laters....

Working to build and maintain trail systems, educate and train riders, and hosting group rides through out the State. They have built the I-5 Colonnade park as well as many others. I have only been on a few rides with the BBTC but all of them were really fun. I really like the web site and wiki page for finding spots to ride around the sound, and people to ride with. A great organization to volunteer for or just meet some like minded singletrack junkies.

This might be the best dive shop I've ever worked with. Their staff are great, as is their shore…read moreinfrastructure. The training is top-notch. They really know what they're doing. Their customer service is also stellar. I dove multiple days with them in a row and they were kind enough to look after my gear overnight. I would absolutely recommend this shop to anyone who wants to learn to dive in the Seattle area, or to anyone who is coming through town and wants to dive in the challenging environment of the Salish Sea.

Until our arrival we hadn't met any of the DST team. The owner Scott and a few other members of the shop joined us on the trip along with other PNW divers. We felt welcomed and supported during our adventure and we highly recommend Seattle Dive tours for your travel or training needs. In fact, we were diving the Alki site in Seattle and had a chance to catch up with them later in the summer and they were just as kind and helpful in the States as they were while traveling. They are a professional, supportive and safe shop - we highly recommend them for your diving and dive travel needs.

Ernesto is a miracle worker. We started off just taking a trial dance class. We'd originally…read morefigured we'd do a subtle sway for our song. Within that trial, Ernesto was able to show us a vision of our dance, and made us realize we could actually learn the skills needed to do something excellent. We had so much fun with our classes - Ernesto is fun, creative, patient, and thorough. The poor guy had to listen to our first dance song ad nauseam without a complaint! He was able to take two very basic dancers and pull together a fabulous and doable choreography- and we surprised all our guests at the wedding, including our parents and close friends. Definitely worth it - not only did it have purpose, but we had fun: it turned into feeling like a date vs another wedding task.

I took a beginning belly dance class with Delilah. It actually was not my first class in belly…read moredance, which is probably good, since I think I would have a hard time keeping up if it was. Delilah is obviously very knowledgeable and passionate about belly dance. So passionate, in fact, that she often forgets that there are new comers and she just dances and doesn't always catch when people are struggling. When you do interrupt her trance-like state of dancing and ask her how the heck she's moving like that, she will give you a phenomenal explanation. I've taken belly dance with 3 or 4 different teachers now and NO ONE has been able to properly explain shimmies the way she has. The space is really cool. I like the Persian rugs all over the floor. They keep your feet from hurting. Much nicer than doing it in a community center on a hard gym floor. I was a little put off my how often Delilah was late to our class. Once, she was almost 20 minutes late. She'll make up for it by giving you more time at the end. But still, it's no fun standing around outside the studio waiting for her. The time she was 20 minutes late, she also seemed very frazzled when she got there, like she just woke up from a nap. And in the process of teaching us some moves, she flashed us her cooch. That was kind of entertaining, actually. It was pretty amazing how great of a dancer she is, even in a half-awake state.

A beautiful hike through the trees that started with a mild incline where you are exposed to the sun so I would suggest doing the hike early in the morning or during the cooler weather months. There are a few sections of the trail that is not shaded but much of the hike is shaded by the trees.
