Seattle, Day 3

Our last day in Seattle we headed over to the Woodland Zoo. Again, we got there pretty early, so the crowds weren't too bad for the first part of our visit. I got lots of great animal photos, so I'm just going to show them off a little.

A jaguar


A toucan


A gorilla (atop the tree)


A brown bear


Haley in a "bear cave"


Bald eagles and their nest


Lots of wallabies


A snow leopard


A giraffe


An ostrich


More giraffes (cause they're so cool looking)


Haley playing a drum in the "African Village"


Then we took a bus down to the waterfront and just caught the 1:30 harbor cruise. It was pretty cool, though Haley didn't listen to the narration at all. There were 3 stories (everybody was in the top 2) and you could sit outside or inside. It was pretty posh!

Of course, I took a photo of the space needle :)


The globe belongs to the Seattle Post-Intelligencer - the big newspaper in the Seattle area


Can you tell I like the space needle?


The skyline was really pretty from the water :)


Of course, the obligatory "we were there" photo :)


After our cruise, we walked further down the docks to Ivar's Acres of Clams, and had an early dinner. for only $20 each we got an appetizer (we both picked clam chowder) an entrée (I had broiled salmon, Haley had acres of clams) and ice cream. Yum!

Then we wandered back to Pike's Place Market. I managed to find the store Kell's had sent me to and picked up 2 six packs of Strongbow hard cider imported from England. Yay!
