Seattle, Part 3

This set of pictures was taken on our last day of our trip. We made our way to the Seattle Aquarium, down a set of steep hills and elevators, after stopping at the Pikes Market to buy some fresh salmon. The aquarium featured a variety of sealife including that of the northwest (except whales). There is a major addition happening, so now we have an excuse to go back (like we really need an excuse...).

We also walked along the waterfront enjoying some of the shops, including the Curiosity Shop, which displayed a collection of mummies and shrunken heads. Having whet our appetites, we ventured back up the elevators and streets to enjoy a last lunch at Westlake Center, a mall which is also an ending point for the Seattle Monorail. Then it was off to Nordstrom's (the original) for a quick shopping trip and back to the hotel and trip to the airport.
