Today we got to sample what downtown Seattle has to offer. We started by checking out the Space Needle downtown. It was built in the 60’s for the World’s Fair. We bought the tickets and went up to the observation deck. The view was spectacular. The only downside was the overcast skies, but it didn’t take away from the beauty Seattle and the Washington area has to offer. It was quite spectacular.
Once we were done with visiting the Space Needle, we checked out two museums that were nearby. One was a science fiction museum and the other was a music museum. Both were cool and had a lot to offer. I don’t think Shay appreciated the Sci-Fi museum as much as I did. 
The music museum was pretty cool. They had all sorts of guitars you could see and read the history about. We enjoyed that immensely. They even had a part of the museum where you could play and jam on instruments. They had guitars, bass guitars, drum kits and keyboards you could play around with. Very cool!
After we browsed the museums, we headed towards the world famous Pike Place Fish Market in Seattle. We walked around and browsed the local fare and shops. We grabbed some sandwiches and just people watched. It was nice. It was cool seeing the market people throw around the fish and yelling back and forth. Just watch your head!
We left Seattle in the afternoon and headed towards Portland. We’re staying at a hotel nearby the airport. I’m hoping to leave early tomorrow morning and hit Minneapolis sometime in the afternoon. Shay will visit her friend Andrew in Corvallis, Oregon while I’m gone. I expect to be back in Portland on Monday sometime. Meanwhile, don’t expect a lot of updates to the site unless Shay gets bored and ends up doing things worth posting while in Corvallis.
So, until then, keep well and stay safe everyone!
