Capitol Hill & Coffee

The teachers I am currently tutoring expressed interest in wanting to visit Capitol Hill last Wednesday.  Being new to the area as well, I was happy to figure out which bus routes to hop on to get there.  Of course, I know absolutely nothing about where I am going, but they knew of a coffee house they wanted to visit.  One, I am told by Atsuko, that it is quite famous.  Espresso Vivace Roasteria, while not totally my thing, made a great cup of coffee even if you couldn't just grab a straight cup o' joe off the menu.  Besides that, you get lovely artwork to go in your drink.  We spent about forty-five minutes there talking, enjoying our drinks, and snacking on some nice pastries.  After that, we strolled down Broadway back towards the bus route to get home.  We found a great used CD/DVD shop too.  I was able to find a copy of New Order's Power, Corruption, and Lies on CD.  Since my cassette tape of that album had worn out long ago I snagged it without a thought.  I am happy with my purchase :)
