The last top on our Seattle City Pass was the Pacific Science Center. We headed over there Saturday morning and spent several hours there – and could have stayed longer. There were some really fun things for the kids (bug exhibits, giant moving dinosaurs, a big play area with musical instruments and a “river” of water to play in, and tide pools where you could touch starfish and anemones, just to name a few), and for the adults too.

The butterfly habitat was definitely a favorite – so many beautiful – and different – butterflies. I loved the ones that were brown underneath but blue on top when their wings opened up (top left). I didn’t get the settings right to take a good picture of the one on Bennett’s arm, but you can at least tell he was excited about it, and he was really good to hold still while it was there.
They had a fun area outside with different water tools – this one made the gears turn when you shot the water at them

We walked around the Seattle Center (where the Space Needle and several museums are) after we finished at the Pacific Science Center, and found this cool fountain. It was almost like it was in a crater so you had to walk down to it.

Looks like fun! Landon and Davis liked looking at the pictures, and they had me go back and look at the pics on our blog of our trip to the science center. Glad you had fun!

Fun to see all your adventures. We loved that crater place- I forget what it was called- but Andrew had a blast playing in there with his swim suit on last 4th of July!
