We took a ferry to Bainbridge Island. It is about a 35 min ride from downtown and the Island is a small suburb of the city. The views from the ferry were worth the ticket alone. You can walk to the main street full of shops and restaurants from the ferry and there was also a playground there too. Jack's favorite part was sitting "playing" (no quarters) a car race video game on the ferry. He loved playing with the steering wheel. Nice free fun I suppose.

Steve wasn't feeling well so my mom and the boys and I went to the Seattle Aquarium. It was nice, not incredible and the boys liked it but pretty much ran through it. Nate only slowed down to view the seals swimming under the water (you could see the seals and the otters from below the water and on "shore." The aquarium was also my first attempt at a "leash" for Nate. I never thought I would use such a thing but he does NOT like to be in the stroller for long periods and won't stay in a carrier (plus he is 30lbs which gets to be a lot!). It kept us from losing him for sure, but he wasn't a huge fan either. It is basically a strap attached to a small backpack with 2 chest straps.
We also found another video game - both boys loved it. Again, no quarters:)
