Seattle is almost as fun as some amusement parks for taking the kids
over for day trips...
These first pictures are from outside and inside
the Science Center...
The Space Needle from the Science Center.
Hoses mounted on gimbals to shoot at targets that
move or spin.
Simple physics for fun.
Activities room.
Shamu and friends.
Food fairs and music festivals are held on the grounds
The Space Needle and Monorail is another whole trip.
Dinosaur exhibit
inside carries out into the courtyards as well.
The Waterfront
Fisherman's Market usually starts the day
Listening to street musicians
The path down from the Market to the Wharves
Alaskan Viaduct (Freeway)
All the old wharves have been
converted to shops and restaurants.
Seattle Aquarium
The Aquarium is also built onto one of the wharves,
actually quite extensive for it's size limitation.
My absolute favorite room in the Aquarium, just
imagine this as a living room in a house?
Tide pools are always a favorite with the younger
set.
A long day
Lunch/Dinner
No matter time of day can always get a great meal of
seafood along the docks, after draining off the water they dump the pot
in the middle of the table, and set the pot next to the table for
shells. No wonder their called The Crab Pot restaurants!
