Off to Seattle






Sheri, Dave's niece, and her husband Jimmy are visiting from Colorado. We have been going 90 miles an hour. Sunday we drove to Bremerton and caught the ferry, with 1 minute to spare, to go to Seattle. It was an hour ride over. First stop the famous Pike Fish Market known for the flying fish. Then on the monorail to the Space Needle. We didn't go up to the top it was cloudy and $18.00. A bit pricey we thought. But we did catch the duck boat next to the Space Needle. It was a so so ride? Then onto a city bus to go see the Ballard Locks. S & J had never seen a lock. I have never seen them shove so many boats in at one time. There were salmon ladders at the locks. We saw a few thinking about swimming but just hanging out for us tourists to look at thru the glass. Back on the bus to just miss the 7:50pm ferry. We had to wait for the 9:05. Pam was watching the dogs for us. It was a long fun day. (all these pictures came from google images, Dave has the camera.) Enjoy!
