Seattle's Sights

We hit a lot of Seattle's tourist sights. It was an amazing week seeing all that makes up Seattle. We had amazing weather and really enjoyed all Seattle offered.

The first stop was the Ballard Locks. Josh grew up really clos
e to the locks. We got to see 58 boats travel from one body of water to another. It was super fun seeing the amazing boats. We also enjoyed dinner at the Totem House, the best place for fish and chips!

The next day we visited the Seattle Science Center. I am not sure if Ezekiel or Josh had more fun. There were lots of cool exhibits to check out. We went through a room filled with dinasours, a room fill with butterflies, a roo
m with a bunch of cool insects, and lots of other fun things. One thing the boys enjoyed was throwing a wiffle ball to see how fast they threw- Josh was 77 mph and Ezekiel was 17 mph- we spent a lot of time there. We also all enjoyed climbing a wall. Tons of fun was had.

We also visited the Space Needle and took a harbor tour. We had such great weather that you could see all the major surrounding mountains. It was a fun time.

Last of all, we visited the Woodland Zoo, the aqurium, and Pike's Place Market. The zoo was great and we loved all the animals. The aqurium was okay for a short time, Ezekiel really didn't get to into the fish. Pike's Place Market was not a great place for a two year old, but we did see the pig:)
