JOURNEY: Seattle - 5

OMGoodness
My cousin travelled up from Puyallup to treat me to IMAX. Always a starter (though admittedly I didn't know what an IMAX experience entailed) I put myself in her hands.

I bused into town and waited at our favourite donut shop TOP POT DONUTS (click here for the inside story on 'hand-forged' donuts) for the cousin-mobile to arrive. Being almost perfectly in sync they pulled up within minutes of my arrival.

Then we set off towards the Space Needle and the charms of the Science Centre
We were early so had some time up our sleeves to browse through the exhibits outside the IMAX theatre - YES I finally worked out that we were going to a movie.
I absolutely loved the old fashioned artifacts of a time long gone some even pre-dating my own childhood

while others were definitely a part of my childhood years.
The Movie Theatre was a real treat and I do enjoy a love story even if vampires and werewolves are some of the key characters. http://www.imdb.com/media/rm3602153984/tt1325004
Very enjoyable and particularly for the company. Afterwards we explored the music displays like big kids.The sculptures all around the outside of the Science Centre were impressive but would have been much improved by water in the fountains! So we went in search of operational foutains and were rewarded beyond expectation. One for the littlies
And one for bigger kids
It's so good to do things with your family especially when they prove to be such good friends.
