If you’re a sports fan or from Seattle, you’ll assume I’m talking about the Mariners. Instead I’m referring to the wonderful tornado of kids that is my cousin’s family. Four kids with energetic parents traveled 4 days by car just for a visit.
Of course, we had to start at the Market. The flying fish got the most attention. We posed in front of the pig (”why are there pigs in the market?” was a main question. I didn’t know the answer.)
3 corndogs, 1 dozen donuts, 2 hombow, 1 crumpet and 2 gyros later, we had snacked through the Market. We headed to the Seattle Center to enjoy the Space Needle. A big hit was the Peace Fountain on the other side of the Seattle Center. It was a good excuse to get very wet.
Wayne took the M’s to Mt. Ranier. They hiked to the Nisqually Glacier, something we weren’t able to do with Sara 6 weeks prior.
On their own, they saw the Museum of Flight, Snoqualamie Falls, Mt. St. Helens, Oregon Caves, and Crater Lake. We had a wonderful time and Sara loved playing with her cousins.
