Harbor Tour

This is a shot of the Seattle skyline from the Royal Argosy. Visibility was perfect by the time we boarded the tour boat at about noon. The downtown area lacks the shabbiness of many city centers, thanks to Microsoft, our cab driver told us yesterday. We enjoyed all the sights, especially the raft of California sea lions performing for tourists.

After the tour, we were ravenous and had lunch at "The Fisherman", where we had a beautiful view of the harbor and a pretty good lunch. Fish and chips for Bob, chowder and Caesar salad for me. After lunch, we were treated to a Native American celebration of Salmon Homecoming 2008, with many dance competitions featuring performers of all ages, in beautiful costumes.
