vrijdag 9 mei 2014 Up with alarm. How's it going Europe? Watch France 24. How's it going Russia? Putin in Crimea for first visit since annexation... a move likely to further enflame tensions with Kiev. Putin was also present for a display of Russian military might in Moscow’s Red Square as part of the May 9 celebrations, known as Victory Day. Switch to Rachel Maddow. Putin ploy presumed in concessions on Ukraine. From Donetsk, Ukraine, Richard Engel talks about whether apparent concessions by Russian President Vladimir Putin to Ukraine are a sign that sanctions are working or just another tactic.

France 24 does the weather. Tokyo looks nice - sunny and warm. Seattle 7 AM / Tokyo 11 PM. Up Westlake to work. I'm extra for the Sea Otters and Dolphins for about an hour. It's really breezy on the playground. When I blow bubbles, they fly every which way. Inside, we read The Gingerbread Cowboy.

Grab some treats in the Staff Lounge. Over to the Infant Room for a couple hours. Most of the babies are awake from recent naps. They need their lunches. Then we do Row, Row, Row Your Boat. Happy, active babies. Over to Seahorses. Dark and quiet here. Dramatic change for me. The kids sleep well. Down to SLU to catch the streetcar. A paddler strips off his wetsuit and puts his gear away. On a windy day like this, he must have had a great workout.

Happy Northwest Paddling Fest for you, dude! Streetcar to Denny. Shop at Whole Foods for wine, cheese and Seaweed & Kale salad. Back to my place. Watch KOMO News. A lot of Pot News, it seems. Federal lawsuit: Can Wash. state legally tax marijuana? I wonder if Russians use pot. Russian drugs boss rules out marijuana legalization.
