Someone at the lodge suggested that we take the ferry from Bremerton, …




…where we enjoyed this sculpture garden behind the naval museum while we waited, …



(These submarine-sail-like fountains belched water like this about once a minute.)

…in order to take in one of the best views of Seattle.




(I just want to say that despite all the wind on the outside decks of the ferries, the UK blew around quite a bit, but stayed down enough to maintain my modesty. The danger actually was in ascending and descending the stairs between the upper and lower passenger decks. It was a wind tunnel, and my kilt blew up to somewhere around my armpits before I knew it. I don’t actually know (or care) whether anyone got a show – but I think they did not, since the stairway was a narrow and confined space to begin with.)

Pioneer Square is the new home of the Utilikilt retail store (which is not in the frame).




Pike Place Market is very colorful.
