Tacoma

We spend three evenings in Tacoma. The main reason is to visit Carol's brother, niece, and new grand nephew. The plan was for two days. Carol's recent trip to the emergency room and general fatigue and desire to spend a quiet day recovering is the purpose of the third day.

We have good views of Mt. Rainier from our room.

Unlike Mt. Fuji, two months ago, Rainier is not hiding from us. She is on magnificent display.

We walk uphill to lunch at a cool pizza house/burger joint/college bar. Interesting internal architecture and decorating.

Like Seattle and San Francisco, Tacoma is a town with striking hills within the city.
