Deluged in Seattle

The fountain delivering its exhilarating deluge on a sweltering day. Look how empty the dome park is today. Right now Naomi nearly has the place to herself!

Just a bunch of lollygaggers at first.  Ho Hum.  I’ll just hang on this ledge and enjoy the Seattle Symphony music.  …but not for long…

The scene ramps up. Naomi is on the left with the big pink ball.

We’ve been coming here nearly every day this week. It starts like this.  We pretend we just need to quickly clean the peanut butter off our fingers and then we get caught up in the game of running back and forth to touch the cold wet metal of the giant dome and this ramps up into a game of backing away from the spray.  Utterly innate.  This is the one place where I get to join my girls and scream my head off.  Really fun!  One never knows when the giant fountain will amp up.  Getting soaked is the real thing.  What else delivers such a thrill!
