We go to this Papa Murphys at least twice a month to get pizza. The store is a nice clean store with plenty of room for the lines that they have. The prices are excellent and the pizzas taste very good. The only problem I have with this store is the customer service. There are times where there will a lot of us in line and only 1 person will be making pizzas while the other is taking orders at the register. Then you will see a few other employees who are just standing around talking to each other and not doing any work. The wait to actually get your pizza can sometimes be long. You may ask why I keep going to this location? It's because it's close to my house and on my way home. The customer service isn't always bad and the prices pretty much make up for it. The best thing to do is call ahead and place an order for your pizza. Your wait time will dramatically drop.

I love going to Babies R Us. We've been many times before and since having our son a year ago. The location of this store is great. It's right off the freeway so you really don't have to spend any time on 82nd street. You can just cut through, I think, the Home Depot parking lot. I cant remember if thats the store right there or not. Well anyways they have a great selection of baby products. You can literally spend hours in here just looking and comparing everything. They also have the store layed out in ways that allow you to find what your looking for easily. They have display models out for all the car seats, strollers, high chairs, bouncers, swings ect so you can see them all put together before you buy them. They also have their bedroom furniture out with actual bedding inside so you can get an idea of the quality of the furniture and also get an idea of what the bedding will look like inside. Doing the baby registry is also easy there. You just go in, sign up and can go around scanning all the stuff you want. The only thing I don't like is when you go there to get someone something and you have them print up a copy of their registry, it doesn't show pictures, just the name and price so it can be hard to locate exactly which thing they want or even what it is. The prices are pretty decent on some stuff and totally outrageous on others. They also have baby fairs that are cool to attend. This is definitely a good store and location to go to if your looking for baby stuff

I go to this location all the time to get new toys and gifts for my kids and family. There are some good things and bad things about this store. The good things are the prices are pretty decent, the selection is good and the isles are pretty easy to navigate. The bad thing about this store is the location. It's a pain to get into and out of the parking lot, especially when it's during rush hour or near a holiday. They also need to manage their checkout lanes better. The ones you use to actually check out aren't that bad, you usually have to wait a few people which is to be expected, but the Customer Service/Return area is just crazy. For one, it's right by the door which to them makes sense but to me is just stupid. The reason is there is always a line. Every time I go in there, theres a line of like 3 or 4 people with only 1 person helping everyone. So you have the people waiting in line mixing with the people trying to get into the store. It can get very crowded and you keep having to move out of the way so people can get by. Also, when you have to take a ticket and after you pay, they bring the product. They used to have a waiting area for that and now you just wait by the exit doors. This can also cause congestion. So while this store is pretty good, there are still a few things that they could improve that would make my experiences there better.

We used this place to rent my husbands tux when we got married in October of 2004. We went in, I think, about a month before our wedding so my husband could pick out the tux and accessories he wanted. The guy who fitted him was very nice and helpful. We told them that we were getting married in Tahoe and that we needed to leave the Wednesday before our wedding because we were driving. They let us pick up the tux a day early and didn't charge us for it. We were also able to drop off the tux in Reno, Nevada the day after our wedding which worked out perfectly for us. We had nothing but excellent customer service with this location and would recommend it to anyone who is looking to rent or buy a suit or tux:)

If you ever decide to visit Seattle, you must make a stop at the Space Needle. I've lived like 2 hours away from Seattle my whole life and didn't go there for the first time until I was 27. I've seen the Space Needle in movies but it's even more beautiful and amazing in person. You have to wait in line to get into the elevator and you CAN NOT bring strollers. This was my only issue. We had our baby in his car seat/stroller combo thing with his diaper bag and other misc crap in the bottom. We had to leave the stroller there and bring all the other stuff with us. We wish we would have known the NO STROLLER RULE. The ride up the elevator is a lot quicker than I imagined, and the elevator host gave lots of info. The view from the top was amazing. We were lucky enough to be there when there was no fog and we got to see everything. It was a little cold outside but that was to be expected. They have a snack bar up there for food and table and chairs to sit down on. The ride down is in a different elevator that lets you off in the gift shop. This is a great idea except when you have to go all the way around to get your stroller that you had to leave behind. I think the Space Needle is very cool and cant wait to go back. I think next time we'll try it at night:)

If your in the Seattle area, you need to go to this place. The Museum of Flight was included in the Citypass and at first, I didn't think it would be fun. It was totally wrong. When we got there, there was so much stuff to see. They had all these planes on the floor and hanging from the ceiling. You could also sit in a few and take pictures. They had stuff about astronauts and different World Wars. Then down the street, they had some actual size huge planes. They had one that was used as an Air Force One for past presidents that you could go into. They also had a retired Concorde which was cool. If this place sounds boring to you, at least give it a try. You will be so happy you stopped here. We were actually here for like 5 hours.

We went on this tour with the Citypass that we purchased for our Seattle trip. The pass comes with a 1 hour harbor cruise or you can upgrade for around $15-$20 dollars to the 2 hour locks cruise. For our trip, they bussed us to where the ship was docked and we boarded. They had lots of seats up on deck for you to sit on and some inside if it got too cold. The coolest thing was going through the locks. It was interesting to see how that all works. It was also cool being in the Harbor and seeing the city from the water. The ships crew were incredibly nice and full of information. They had light snacks and drinks on board for you to purchase and they also had a bathroom. I would definitely recommend this cruise to anyone.

I know many people will probably not agree with me but I was not impressed at all with the Seattle Aquarium. We went there with the Citypass and were so happy that we didn't pay the full price for it. We got there at 4pm, which was 1 hour before they closed and we were in and out in no time. I think the best thing about the place was the gift shop. They do have a lot of fish so if thats interesting to you, you'll be happy. So my advice is if it's included with the Citypass, it doesn't hurt to look. If you have to pay full price. Skip it.

We went to The Woodland Park Zoo as part of a Citypass package when we were in Seattle last October. The zoo is in a residential and busy area of Seattle and has lots of traffic around it. When you get to the zoo, you have to pay to park, but I guess thats normal in Seattle. The zoo is a good size and you can get kinda lost in it. The animals that we saw were normal zoo animals and my son loved them all. One of my favorites was the Red Panda. It was so cute and small. I probably took about 15 pictures of this. We also loved the Jaguar. It was behind this big glass thing and would come right next to the window. I cant believe how big and how totally beautiful these animals are. We went to the concession stand to get food and the prices were totally outrageous. The food also was not very good. The area you ate in wasn't very clean and that whole experience kinda grossed me out. Overall, we enjoyed the park but were a little disappointed, We had heard this was an amazing zoo and I guess it was kinda a let down. I am glad that we went thoe:)

If you want to stay sane, do not shop at this Walmart. I've gone here a few times and have never had a good experience. This is the dirtiest Walmart I have ever seen. They never have what you need in stock and the employees are mean. I'm not sure if it's the area or what but you never fail to see people just letting their kids run wild. The lines are always super super long and then you get attitude when your being helped. So, if your in the area, save yourself the headache and go down the street to the one in Clackamas.
