Seattle Center

The second day of our Seattle Trip we got to spend time with LeAnne, Sallad, Grace and Bri. It was so much fun to get dressed up all warm and visit Seattle Center, look at the Space needle and see a 3-D Imax with L&P and the 4 J kids. We saw "Santa vs. the Snowman"which was quite silly, but fun at the same time. I'm a kid at heart.

Bri's nose got a little cold (isn't it the cutest ever?!) but she was cozy and warm all bundled up in her stroller. I think she looks a little shocked in this photo, maybe because we had just come in from the cold outside.

Part of the electric train display. This is so neat, it's huge and they let kids run the train from that orange booth in the back.


The Space Needle

They are also referred to as the Seattle Science Center Arches and were built by Minoru Yamasaki who is best known for designing the twin towers of the World Trade Center. He built these for the Seattle World's Fair in 1962.


The Science Fiction Museum entrance in the crazy multicolored building. It was designed by Frank Gehry and is also home to Seattle's Rock Museum. Neither of them interest me, but the building is so weird that it is worth mentioning.

  2. Looks like fun, (except a little less for poor LeAnne of course) and cold too. Seattle is always fun and interesting, and not a bad place to "have" to hang out at! That's a neat shot of the Knittery sign too!
