With a name like that, how could we NOT do this, ASAP? We drove down to South Lake Union Park, the place where the boat docks. We went straight to buy tickets, then waited for the sailing time and looked around the park. They have a cool basin for sailing model sailboats:
And we watched seaplanes taxi in to their little dock “airport”:
Then the time was drawing near, so we ran over to the M/V Fremont Avenue:
Wait for meeeee!
On the boat, we admired the painted chairs:
One of the first things we saw were the houseboats on East Lake Union:
I held up Eli to see over the railing:
This guy made a privacy fence with trees in floating containers:
The next highlight was a look at Dale Chihuly’s studio and home:
And the next highlight was an ice cream float!
The special is chocolate ice cream in root beer, which I thought sounded kind of gross, but Eli wanted it so we got it, and honestly it was pretty good. How could it not be? It was like drinking a tootsie roll.
We saw a duck tour!
Saw seaplanes taking off…
…the Sleepless in Seattle houseboat, on West Lake Union…
…and a nice view of downtown.
Eli fell apart by the end, but you wouldn’t guess from the pictures!
