if you're up for a drive, Snoqualmie Falls is a cool site, near the town of Snoqualmie off of I-90

There is a cheap water taxi to take you across Elliot Bay, just a few dollars... so no excuses to miss out on the best fried fish and chowder!!

motoboy, you came to Seattle and did not look up the APC locals??? What the ....

Yes, Paine Field is nice. My CFI used to have me fly over there to do touch and go exercises until I got airsick.

All those employee cars you see there? They are all on I-5 at quitting time. Turns the freeway into a parking lot.

Be sure to check out http://flightaware.com/live/airport/KBFI for cool arrivals. BFI gets some interesting aircraft (e.g. N787RR, N747GE, etc)

Also in the Pike Place Market is an unpretentious little donut stand. It's near the huge magazine stand. Check it out...they toss the donuts into a brown bag, and they are awesome for those cool Seattle afternoons!

This seafood place opened not too long ago in the now defunct Made In Kitchen Vietnamese restaurant. I've never been to Louisiana before and not really sure what a crawfish is, but $18 for two pounds? Is that a reasonable price? I am also deathly allergic to shellfish so I guess I'll never be able to partake of this boilfest.

One of my favorite things to do in Seattle is to meet the friendly girls that work at Galvin Flying Services @ KBFI! Sweet Mercy

I agree, by far the best in the Seattle area! Better than most that I've been to in Bangkok. The ONLY Thai restaurant that my family and I go to.
