Vacation 2015, #5 - Seattle, Space Needle'ish

Well, enough of the ugly feet pictures post at the top! On to the next vacation post from last summer. 

It's only the fifth post from vacation so far and I've probably got another 10 or so to go after this...

As you maybe guessed from the title, we're at the Space Needle and it's surrounding area this time around.

We mis-handled the day and in turn, the day mis-handled us...  I'll spare you the details but it wasn't the best day of vacation although you wouldn't guess that after looking at these fun pictures!
 

I snapped this pic at the base of the Space Needle while we were waiting in line to buy our tickets.  Pretty cool building and surrounding area but I wouldn't want to be here in a large earthquake!

Look who was on security duty this fine day!  They had taken the day off from conquering far off galaxies and provided a little muscle for the crowds that gather on an afternoon of lovely weather.

Spiderman was also present but he had just been shopping for some new Keds sneakers...

This is inside the top of the Space Needle.  It's nearly empty because only 1 of the 3 elevators was working and we were some of the last folks going down.

The Mobile Chaos Unit at the top of the Needle on the outside catwalks.

A little Seattle city from high above.  This is looking mostly North and a bit to the West.

From nearly the same spot on the deck, this is looking mostly South, and a bit to the West.

There's a large playground area near the base of the Space Needle.  That's where we're at currently with the boys climbing on this cable apparatus.

Again on that same climbing thingy with the Music Emporium in the background.   That's that silvery and purplish looking building.

This is part of that same playground.  It's a giant maze that you have to walk thru and I will say that I had great fun doing it!

Robby a ways into the maze with me out in front snapping pix.

A rather large Stratocaster inside the Emporium.

And finally, we're getting on the Trolley to head back towards the downtown area from whence we came as our day draws to a close.
