Last month I had the opportunity to go visit my sister in washington for the first time in the 5 years that she has lived there. They are currently trying to sell their house so I figure I had better go see if before she didn't live there anymore. I flew into Portland Oregon and we had a stop that is a must if you are in that area....The famous Voodoo Doughnuts :)
They make crazy good doughnuts...check out their website http://voodoodoughnut.com/index.php
haha this is their blunt doughnut...we told the kids it was an ice cream cone.
Bacon covered maple Bar.
The next day we went to Seattle for two days. It was so amazing spending time with my sister just her and I. we bought city passes so we could do all of the fun touristy type of stuff. Such as the seattle aquarium, the harbor tour, The Space Needle. the EMP Museum, The Pacific Science Center, and more. Our hotel was in downtown and it was less than a block from the Space Needle, we had a great view.
Feeding Fish when we got there
Tide Pools
Ring of Life
This guy was HUGE
Feeding the Octopus. They found him living under the aquarium pier. They take them to fatten them up and then release them.
Big Ol' Lobster
You can't see me!
I think Lion Fish are beautiful
These are called Sea Pens
This guy is happy to see you :)
Isn't underwater life so beautiful!
Next we went on the Argosy Harbor tour. We learned so much about Seattle!
It was windy
The City from the water.
Then we went to this Bizarre Souvenir shop
This amazing architecture is the Experience Music Project Museum.
Isn't it pretty?!
Since it is a music Museum, they have the musical roots. So cool!
I don't know what it was about actual dj equipment, but it totally changed our persona lol
Just call me DJ Sassafras
Dj bad mama jamma
The Avatar Exhibit
This is how we size up to an Avatar
The exhibit looked so awesome
The Horror Film Exhibit. Walking down to it kinda scared me lol. There was a lot of screaming and scary music. if you don't know me, I HATE HATE HATE horror films.. I would rather be laughing.
This crazy wall projector was the best of the exhibit in my opinion
This was the church room It was beautiful
We went to eat at the Hard Rock Cafe Seattle that night. It was the fanciest Hard Rock I have ever been into. less rock than expected.
The Pike Place Market was across the street
After Dinner we took our 1st trip up the space needle.
The city looked stunning at night.
I had no idea that the top of the space needle was green...it looks black or blue from far away.
