Seattle - Day 2

We awoke to the sun shining which was a great way to begin our second day in Seattle.  First stop: Seattle Center which is the site of the 1962 World's Fair.


Started out seeing starfish under the docks at low tide at the ferry station on Bainbridge Island

Kingfisher looking for a fish at the ferry.

Cruise ships docked in Seattle

Great view of Seattle from the ferry with the sunshine.

Chihuly Garden and Glass exhibition.   The pictures do not give this justice.  It was a beautiful exhibit.  Two pieces of Dale Chihuly are currently displayed in the Children's Museum in Indianapolis as well as IUPUI school of medicine.
