I went to the Space Needle on a day with nary a cloud in the sky--it was amazing! I had lunch there and it was delicious. I will warn you, I post a lot of images from the elevator, the observation deck and the Cafe.
And I want to share this quick tale--and it's true! After arriving up to the observation deck I was waiting for the cafe to open and taking pictures. Suddenly a somewhat familiar looking woman comes up to me as asks, "Do you work at Blah Blah Elementary school?"
Then I knew where I knew her from and broke into a big smile, "Yes, I do!"
"Karly said it was you! Karly, Noah, come over here, it is Mr. A-------."
That would be the M--------- Family from Gaithersburg, Maryland all the way across the country running into me at the top of the Space Needle! What are the chances?

Looking South.
Looking North.
In the cafe as it slowly spins to reveal all views.
Looking South over the bay from my Cafe table.
Appetizer: Dungenus Crab Cakes.
Main Course: Prime Rib Sandwich.
This is the Bill and Melinda Gates Center with the eco-friendly roof and most reasonable public parking the area--hint, hint.
A closer up of Volunteer Park with the Asian Art Museum and the Waterpower.
Looking East to the Cascade Mountains
Downtown Seattle with Mount Rainier in the distance--was a magnificent mountain!
Looking West across Puget Sound.
Looking North to the snow capped Rockies in Canada.
Outside on the outer deck--cold and windy!
