Fun in Seattle

There are so many exciting things that we did on our Seattle trip. One of the first things we did when we got there was we went down to the gum wall and stuck some gum on it. When you went down this alley and looked around, gum was showered all over the walls. It was everywhere except for the roof and the floor (if it was on the floor that would be a lot of gum stuck to your shoe… eww).The shiniest orange gum on the wall in this close up is mine.

Speaking of weird things, did you know that Seattle is built on top of an old, amazingly preserved, city? To check the city below the city out, we went on an underground tour and we learned about the history of Seattle.

Over by the waterfront, we went to the aquarium. My favorite part was getting to watch each of the otters crack into and eat their own Dungeness Crab (by the way, that is what inspired me to try crab).

After I had my crab for lunch, I went on Wings Over Washington, an awesome motion simulator ride that actually made you feel like you were flying through Washington. It even sprayed mist on you on two occasions: (1) when you were flying close to a waterfall, and (2) when you were flying behind racing hovercrafts. After that, we went on the Seattle Great Wheel, which was amazing. The Seattle Great Wheel is one of the tallest Ferris Wheels in the world.

Seattle is a beautiful city full of fun things to do!
