The heritage in our neighborhood is very strong. Everyone likes to tell of their Scandinavian roots and who they knew and from where. I have read in our Guide to Seattle that this stems from long ago when commuting across the water was difficult, thus leaving each neighborhood with a very distinct “feel.”
Ballard has an old fishing town feel. Maybe you have gotten that by all the posts on the locks and ships we see around our house. The neighborhood hosts Ballard Seafood Fest and we have heard a lot of great reviews so we thought we would head down and see what it was about.
What we found was that there was a lot of YUMMY seafood. Thomas also was nice enough to let a salmon eat him so his daddy could take a picture next to it! Stella as always was a celebrity and everyone thought she was “Lilly.” We will make this an annual event as long as we are living in our neighborhood.
