The Boeing Company is the greatest Airplane Company in the world and has competed with every other Company in the world. How do I know? Well, I am proud to tell you that I worked for the Boeing Company for 40 years.
The Boeing Company offered me, an individual, to make my career a complete success in life, raise my family and also see many parts of the world. The Boeing tour is a marvelous thing to behold, especially for the young who are interested in aircraft of all sizes and models. You can learn a lot if you are attentive to the tour guide and ask questions that you may think could not be answered. It is well worth the time and price. The museum is another great place to find many items of interest.

You can bet that Jake (she drives a blood-red van) won't be taking you to the typical crowded touristy locales. I live in Seattle and found this tour fascinating. Especially the part about the Comet Hill cemetary on Beacon Hill. Creepy! I highly recommend this tour to anyone seeking an alternative way to entertain out-of-towners. You'll be taken around in Jake's van so seating capacity is small, but makes for a more intimate setting than a tour bus.

Fly your kite of ride your bike around the park. Tons of achors of fun for the family. I enjoyed the old structures as there are tons of them. My high school use to throw keg parties there because it was secluded and not many cops were around. If you climb to the top of the hill you get a great view of Union Bay. You can also watch sea planes land and take off. Great for picnics too by the way.

I had never taken my 8 month old Jack Russell Terrier to a dog park before. She isn't very socialized and i was a bit nervous.
I went with my neighbor and her Golden Lab, which is my pup's best friend. I think it helped her to have her friend with us. She barked a bit at first and hid from some of the other dogs but she took to it in no time. We went on a sunny Tuesday morning when there were plenty of people and pups but not too many. Just enough for a first trip.
It was great! Very successful for our first visit. All the dog owners are either friendly or keep to themselves. There were a few dog walkers there with their pack of dogs following them around. It's a sight to see.
She didn't get in the water, not quite ready for that yet. But it was a great day!
The park is kept up really well with fences and tree bark in certain spaces. There are plastic bags hung on the fences in case you get a little surprise and are without a baggy. There is water available for play breaks.
Highly Recommended!

Come give this place a visit. Both are located at the Science Center and are basically neighbors as the walk to each theater takes about 2 minutes. Both have huge screens and comfortable seats. The seats in the Boeing Imax theater are very plush and provide a great experience. The Eames are little bit hard, but that will prevent you from falling asleep. When you find a movie you like come here and watch it, it's fairly cheap!

I love Pike Place, they have all the fresh seasonal flowers and fruits here! I love the crowdedness of the place and the market feel of it. You can't complain when a bouquet of fresh flowers will only cost you $5-$10 only! You can't beat that! The fruits are a bit pricey compared to your normal grocery store, but it's so fresh and tasty! Very well worth it. Oh, don't forget to visit the seafood section, they have the freshest fish of every season. The only thing is freshness can be pricey, but if you don't mind spending the extra money and the pain of looking for parking, you should definitely get your groceries here.
Since I work in downtown, it's easy for me to go to the market to pick up some produce on my way home! My absolutely favorite place in the Summer!

My kids and I have this quarterly ritual. We visit the Pacific Science Center. We find that there is always something to discover and that they update their exhibits frequently, each one more interesting than the previous. Great fun place that's also educational and a nice breather from the malls.

young parents yearning to introduce their chitlins to mud and leaves and bugs without having to load up their car and drive to the cascades should dig the wide open space and big old trees just 1/4 mile walk from the southern parking lot of Discovery Park.

I work here taking pictures of the people that go on the ride. I love ALL the captains, there a bunch of fun and really love what they do. The office/ticket booth people are really great as well! It really is a fun ride to go on even if you live here! The ride is 90 minutes and costs about $25 per person. It goes ALL over Seattle! If you do go try and pre buy the tickets because there usually sold out for the whole day by like 4 and GET THERE A HALF HOUR EARLY!!!!!! The seating is first come first serve and if you go with a group of 3+ and are the last to arrive chances are you won't get to sit together. They try and make it soooo clear to people but there is always the rude group that get there 5 min. after they loaded the duck and complain to everyone that they can't sit together. It really is a great tour though and if you do go make sure to sit in the middle because the back can be a little bumpy and the front although its the warmest part, you can miss stuff a little easier because it does go by kind of fast sometimes. This has been voted one of the things you MUST do in Seattle!
