Trip to Seattle

We went to Seattle for a few days and went to several fun places in Seattle. We went to the Zoo, Museum of Flight, Space Needle, Science Center, Aquarium, and a cruise around the harbor. We had so much fun but we were tired by the end. Ella did pretty well, except the second day she was exhausted since she didn't go to sleep until 10:30 pm and still got up early. Tanner did great, especially the second day since he was in the snugglie the whole day. Seattle is a fun place to visit but I don't want to live there, mainly because of the traffic. On our way to Seattle it took us an extra 2 hours to get to the Zoo then it should have because they closed a main bridge.

Tanner kept cool at the Zoo with a little fan we had that also squirted water. He didn't appreciate the water but it kept him cool.

Museum of Flight, as you can see Ella enjoyed that one.
Ella playing in the kid area at the Science Center.
The butterfly house in the Science Center.
One butterfly seemed to like me and we aren't supposed to touch them, so he got a little ride until I found someone to take him off.
We thought the table and chairs were fun, it makes Dave look like a little kid.

Ella loved the otters and seals.
We took a cruise around the Harbor.

It looks like you guys packed in lots of fun things to do. Every time we are in Seattle we are always in a hurry so we never get to look around and spend much time there. That picture with the big chair and table cracked me up!
