Good affordable hotel(s) -except parking charge- in LA Live/Downtown. Two Marriott hotels (Residence Inn & Courtyard) are split into half & half by elevator area, and as we had to book this stay with reward tickets and each hotel had different weekend rate, we had to stay one night each at different hotels in same building πŸ™‚

First family air trip since this pandemic started – and also a little comp to myself and families who weren’t able to have a summer vacation in this year.

California always rules in weather and sunshine but at the end I always realizes how the air is fresher at PNW whenever I return πŸ™‚ Anyhow good refresh in mental health & Vitamin D (and run an extreme stress test on the stomach)

Downtown Seattle

Saturday morning walk-around-alone at Downtown Seattle.

Block by block walking showed lots changes since I was walking around the downtown [Almost full 7 years ago!!] when I was working at SLU. Alaskan Way Viaduct has now fully teared down, lots of downtown shops at first floor are empty, 3rd Ave is now fully bus only street and bike lanes are here and there.

Lots of things must have contributed in different ways on the changes of the Downtown’s scene – Endless developments with high rises, “Seattle is Dying”, Covid 19 etc….

Forza Horizon 5

Although I miss lots of things from my old workplace, and one of the most – so far – is the fact I am far away from launch of great games in service. I have been extremely close in monitoring tons of game launches at old place and actually have watched myself adjusting the ‘tie’ both intentionally or unintentionally after I departed.

However, missing the opportunity to closely monitor the launch of Forza Horizon 5 is one of the biggest thing among those – Forza Horizon series never disappoints & the beautiful & fun/casual driving experience is always fun. As I am not close any more, didn’t jump into this game immediately at launch but made an effort to jump in at this weekend. This reminds me one of the big shift of mind I made when deciding this transition – ‘Gaming is truly personal interest for a while from now’ πŸ™‚

Week 1 being Big Red

I personally have never been associated any red in my life.. πŸ™‚ Grown up from the country hates red, and went to both college and MBA where color was blue… and even I worked for company called themselves as Big Blue… πŸ™‚ Maybe the closest one might be magenta.. πŸ™‚

Eternals, Lego Eternals, & κ·€μ‹ΈλŒ€κΈ°

Not a huge fan of Marvel but one of our brothers loves to watch and the other’s friend is the same way.. so end up watching at theater almost every Marvel movie.. (Can’t we settle with Disney+ with some wait??…)

One of the joy of watching at the theater around launch/release date is not getting spoiled from/by anything – while I was just about to be spoiled by Lego brochure – which I picked up from the mail few days before the movie and actually opened at the night after I watched the movie. Lego is fast- Had I ever seen this maybe 1/3 of the scene in the movie was not new to me. πŸ™‚

Movie was not that terrible like the review score – maybe more of ground settings for any future stories – one special thing was watching Korean actor in Marvel movie.. and there were several points the director must have adopted from his past movies – I was the only one LOLing when Gilgamesh was using his palm instead of fist πŸ™‚
