Lively breakfast conversation, followed by trip on the light rail(so clean and new) buses, electric trolleys, and trains use same platform , followed by monorail two minute ride( a vestige from 1962 seattle fair) which ends at the Space Needle, the city's landmark structure.
We head to the Chihuly gardens , such a beautiful experience. Unique glass sculptures of translucent vibrant colors showcased in different mediums. Rumor is Italy dislikes him as he convinced many master glass blowers to come here and work with him. (He had apprenticed in Murano years ago).
We then walk a short distance to the Mo Pop Museum, Here we explore the creativity of Jim Henson, see a exhibit on David Bowie, travel on the Enterprise with StarTrek memorabilia, sing and play music in a sound studio
Charles has heard about Taylor's where the oysters are the best, he partakes and agrees.... those slimy creatures are not for me
We head to the waterfront, listen to music, happy hour, dinner and collapse after the uphill trek back

I wish our subways were as clean.

I agree with Michael. It brings back memories of Venice and the glass factory.
