In keeping with the plan to do all the things Jeff has never experienced in Seattle, we spent a day downtown. We hit up all the typical tourist traps - Pike Place Market, the Space Needle.
We had lunch at Sky City, the restaurant up in the Space Needle.
Enormous and delicious meal I had.
We spent a bulk of the afternoon in the Pacific Science Center, which was one of my favorite places when I was little. I was slightly concerned that my memories of how cool it was were colored by the fact that I was a kid, but it did not disappoint (perhaps because Jeff is basically just a big kid.) They have so many neat interactive exhibits. The mirrors were a lot of fun, especially the anti-gravity mirror -
Disgusting.
They had a great butterfly house. We had one butterfly hitchhiker who was determined to come with us - he tried to travel out on me, then flew from me to Jeff and the butterfly experts had to finally come remove him with special tongs.
