Green Lake Park
Jul 30, 2007 by Maca from Sacramento, CA

Overall Rating: 10

• Great scenery and nice people.
• Too many people.

“I came to Washington to meet my boyfriend for the first time. He brought me here for our first date. It was a beautiful day, bright, sunny, and a cool small breeze. It was really busy though. We were there on a Saturday and there was a sort of run/walk fundraiser going on at the time. The people are friendly and we were mainly off the main trail because of the high traffic. I love it there and plan to go there when I go back up again.”

Science Fiction Museum & Hall of Fame
Jul 22, 2006 by Kelly from Corvallis, OR

Overall Rating: 9

• Great exhibits.
• A bit pricey for a rather small museum.

“A small but unique place to visit. A bit pricey but worth it to any science fiction fan. Memorabilia from everything, movies, TV, and books. Highly recommended if you're in the area and you want to call yourself a true Sci fiction geek!”

Expierence Music Project
Jul 14, 2006 by Tricia from Poulsbo

Overall Rating: 9

• Love the hands on stuff!
• This is not the entire history of rock and roll so don't expect it.

“Bring all your friends and don't expect the complete history of Rock and Roll. I took my worldly rock and roller 7 year old son and we had a great time. We got there at 9am and waited an hour for the joint to open. The very kind employees told us the best time to go is between 4:30PM and 8PM (and have dinner in the EMP grill). My son and I had lunch at the EMP grill and it was very, very good. The wait staff was outstanding and the food was good and plenty. Go straight to the 3rd floor and do either the sound lab or the "on stage" areas then work your way down. I thought the store was lacking and expensive. hit the clearance table. We stayed from 10AM-4PM and my son never got bored. This would have been more fun with more friends to do the "on stage" area. We will go back with a crowd!”

Seattle Art Museum
Jun 7, 2006 by Mary from Antioch, CA

Overall Rating: 10

• World-class art all year 'round and a nice cafe on site.
• Parking nearby is tough to find but there are parking garages in the area.

“I have family in Washington and a friend who lives in Seattle, and every time I visit up there, I check to see what is at the Seattle Art Museum before I go. This museum has one of the best permanent exhibits of Pacific Northwest Indian art to be found anywhere. I have seen some wonderful exhibitions there and art I never thought I'd see outside of London, Paris or New York. It is well worth your time to go to this museum whenever you go to Seattle”

Lion King
Feb 15, 2005 by Michelle W . from Port Angeles, WA

Overall Rating: 10

• Costume & sets were unbelievable! We enjoyed every minute.
• None

“A must see...This was a family event like no other a. My 10 year old nephew was captured from the opening moments as were my parents and everyone else in the theater. As the elephants made their way down the isle to the stage, I sat, mouth dropped open with amazement, at what it must have taken to produce this play. Bravo!!! I have seen my share of plays and have to admit this was one of the best I have seen.”

Expierence Music Project
Feb 14, 2005 by Robert S . from Newington, CT

Overall Rating: 6

• Big and fancy
• Not really about music

“Yknow, it's ok, as a big glamorous something or other. The building is cool, and it's hard to question the enthusiasm with which it was put together. But if you're going to a real authoritative museum of rock, this isn't it. The medium is so big that it really defies a museum in the traditional sense. If you want a museum of rock, check out the internet. It sounds like I'm being flip, but I'm not. You can glue a bunch of guitars together into a cool shape and get somebody famous's coat and a bunch of old posters, but that doesn't add up to rock and roll. So if you come looking for that, like I foolishly did, you'll be disappointed.”

Hiram M. Chittenden Locks (Ballard Locks)
Feb 14, 2005 by Robert S . from Newington, CT

Overall Rating: 7

• Boats moving up and down
• Boats moving up and down

“The boats come. The boats stop. The water goes up on one side and down on the other or vice versa. The boats go again. In a sense, if you've seen one set of locks, you've seen 'me all, and judged against that scale, the Ballard Locks are meant for only the truly desperate-for-attractions tourist. On the other hand, the gardens are pretty, and if you find yourself in the area, it's a decent place to just kick around and do nothing in for a half hour or so.”
