Seattle - Day 2

Today we went to downtown Seattle. I thought that I would get some really great pictures from the Space Needle, but when we got up to the top I remembered exactly how affraid of heights I am. Actually I am not affraid of heights, just affraid of falling from high places. So you will have to trust me that it was an awesome view from 500 feet above the city.

I really wanted to go to the world famous Pike Place Fish Market. So we ventured to the market and it was really cool. When someone orders a fish they toss it from the display area to the counter to be cut up. It was a slow day for fish purchases but we did get to see them toss a couple of fish. The fish market is part of a large public marketplace with hundreds of little stands where you can get fish, flowers, fruit, photos and touristy gift s of all sorts. It is also located across the street from the first Starbucks.

Here are a couple of fun shots from today, the first one is a cool panoramic photos that is actually 19 pictures combined to form one large print. Next is my dad and I and the final two are from the market. I hope you like them, have a great day!
