Another day in Seattle

This morning we left the hotel around 10:30AM. Since it worked out so well yesterday, we decided to use the transit system again.  Our first stop was the Space Needle. It was another clear day with blue skies. It seemed that everyone in Seattle was here because of the nice weather. We had to wait about 30 minutes for tickets and then almost an hour to get inside. We could have avoided the wait if we wanted to pay double. We would have gotten the VIP treatment. The view was spectacular. Walking around the top, we were able to see all around the area. 

We left the Space Needle by tram and then walked to the waterfront, passing through Pike Fish Market to look for a place for lunch. I chose The Crab Pot. It was a good choice. Ray & I had a meal that was like a crab boil but it had crabs, shrimp, mussels, & clams in addition to the other stuff that is usually in it. The server spread the paper, brought us a mallet & melted butter. Then he dumped our dinner on the paper. It was s-o-o-o delicious. Jim had some halibut that he said was very good. Rose doesn't like fish so she had some chicken that she liked. After our meal, we walked around a little and then climbed the 105 steps (Jim counted them) to the top of University Street to get our train back to the hotel. Tomorrow we will head down I-5 going south.
