Something's Fishy Around Here

 We enjoyed a day in the Pike Market area.  The flower stalls were outstanding
 Hoofed it over to Pioneer Square for the Underground Tour (www.undergroundtour.com). Thanks to floods and fire, present day Seattle is built further back and up from the harbor. But the original sidewalks and structures below exist. This tour is a hoot - interesting history and viewpoint of Seattle in the 1800s
 A sea otter entertained Ray at the Seattle Aquarium.
 Oh, the seafood. Yes, we saw the guys heave huge fish around.
Posing before we head to our Argosy Harbor cruise. I was happy despite the gray skies - wasn't working and I'm wearing a jacket. As I post this from home, it is over 100 in Dallas.......sigh.

    Oh, good, you took the cruise. The Port of Seattle is a fascinating place, isn't it, the way they unload cargo boxcars from ships?

    The one thing I didn't do was the Underground Tour; I wasn't even aware it existed. Have any pics from that?
