Day 11 Seattle

First stop this morning was to head down to the city centre and pick up the hire car. It is gorgeous!! It's called a Dodge Caravan and it has so much room- the kids don't have to travel with luggage on their laps! It even has heated seats!! Drove down to Pike Place markets and had a look around. Lined up for 45 minutes along with everyone else to get a coffee from the original Starbucks. The kids all had frappacinos- they were pretty yummy!! Saw the fish being thrown, did a spot of shopping and then back to the car. Went to Capitol Hill and the kids had a bit of a play and then to Kerry Park for an awesome view of Seattle.

Next stop Seattle Centre. Walked through the stalls and tables set up for the bite festival. Heaps of people & different foods from all over. Had our first bagel for lunch with cream cheese which was really yummy! Then off to board the Aquaduck for our tour around Seattle. Our guide was a little bit over the top but he was very knowledgeable and it was heaps of fun- especially when it drove into the water! I think I want to live on a houseboat!!

Finished on the duck and headed to Luna Cafe for dinner. It was a very cool, little diner with little jukeboxes on the table and memorabilia everywhere. Huge portion sizes too! I think I'm glad I am averaging 10kms a day!!
