Thursday notes: West Seattle on cruise cam, and more

CRUISE CAM: Via Facebook, Marc points out the view of West Seattle from the aft end of the Pacific Princess, currently docked in Magnolia. Ever wonder which ship’s in when? The full schedule is here.

CAPERS CONSOLIDATING: It came up first in the WSB Forums. Then, Brian sent us this photo:

We finally got to stop in at Capers in The Junction today to ask what’s up. They’re not closing – they’re consolidating; after June 1st, the store will be in the southernmost (“lower”) level, including the spot that used to be its cafe. No word so far on what will take over the space Capers is vacating, but they tell us a wall will be put up to finish enclosing the shop’s resized space.

ANOTHER DEDICATION AT MORGAN COMMUNITY FESTIVAL: Not only will Morgan Junction Park itself be dedicated during the Morgan Community Festival on June 13, so will the new sidewalk art project, “Salon,” by SuttonBeresCuller (ceremony scheduled for 10 am that day, according to an invite just in from the city’s Office of Arts and Cultural Affairs). The festival also will feature the “Bite of Morgan” and entertainment including the famed Bubbleman. (We’ll be reporting “live” from the festival, so looking forward to seeing you there.)

    On June 22-24 the Residensea is here – that’s the shop that people apparently “live” on – should be interesting. Most of the other ships are the 7 day cruise to Alaska (plus at least a few hours in Canada so it is an “international” cruise) and return ships.

    I would guess that the “sailing” date is when they leave, not arrive. Two ships came in at 7 AM Thursday but I only saw one leave from Pier 66 at 5:00 PM. Couldn’t quite make out the name…

    Caper’s should have never gotten rid of the cafe, there’s reason to go there anymore.

Sorry, comment time is over.
