Quick update from Seattle


Above: The Washington State Convention Center is the venue for the Fall North American Bridge Championship.

Bridge players are pouring in and the fun has begun. I played with Kate yesterday in a warm-up game. We are going to play again today, then sight-see Tuesday. Wednesday and Thursday will be the Senior Mixed Pairs.

Temperatures are in the low 40s and there has been some rain. Really, it's more of an occasional drizzle. Downtown Seattle has a nice vibe. At 5 p.m. it doesn't close up like some cities.

You can read the Daily Bulletins and get other information here.


Above: People get sight-seeing advice.


Above: Bridge at the Convention Center is played on the fourth and sixth floors. Escalators take people to the playing areas.

  4. So, have you avoided reediting the daily bulletin? :)

    P.S. Josie should take up the game. It be fun watching her vulnerable.
