Pike Place Special Reserve

One of the many stops I made on my journey across the country (and back) was to the original Starbucks store in Pike Place Market. In many ways it didn't seem all that different from all the other Starbucks stores I've visited.

Of course, two major differences are the original logo and the availability of Pike Place Special Reserve.


I definitely enjoyed my time in Seattle, though it did feel a bit strange to be in a city I had been in ten years before and experience it in simultaneously different and similar ways.

The more and more I think back on my cross-country trip and talk/write about it, the less and less I feel that I don't like to travel. I continue to surprise myself by how I'm changing as I get older. (Not to diminish, however, the ways I'm staying the same!)
