Seattle Trip

We took the ferry over to Seattle and spent the day sight seeing with the kids.  I especially wanted Tucker to be familiar with the big sights in case people ask him about them after he moves out.

We were trying to see the property from the ferry.  It wasn't possible, but we tried.

We saw the miniature train village.

The space needle.

Posed in front of the EMP and played at the playground there.

We put gum on the gum wall.  The kids were probably the most excited about this, but when we got there they didn't even want to do it.

We visited pikes place.

And checked out the gingerbread village.

It was fun, but a very long day.  When we were about fifteen minutes away from our house our car stopped working.  I wasn't able to get the van to go over 20 mph and it was very very slow to gain speed.  I was so happy we were able to make it home.  It was actually Christmas Eve so we didn't even look at it until after Christmas.  Turns out you need to put oil in a car for it to work.  It was completely empty and when Bob filled it up it started working perfectly again.
