During your Seattle vacation, don't miss these great establishments and attractions:
Northwest Seaport/Maritime Heritage Center
Although this marine heritage center at the south end of Lake Union is currently little more than a shipyard for the restoration of four historic ships, it has grand plans for the future. If you're a fan of tall ships and the age of sailing, you can pay a visit to the 1897 schooner Wawona, which is currently under restoration. Also being restored are a 1904 lightship, an 1889 tugboat, and a 1933 salmon troller. Throughout the year, there are folk-music concerts ($10 adults, $7 seniors and children) on the deck of the Wawona (call for details), and on the second Friday of each month, there's a free Chantey Sing from 8 to 10pm.Nearby, at Chandler's Cove, you'll find the gift shop and the few small exhibits of the Puget Sound Maritime Historical Society, 901 Fairview Ave. N. (tel. 206/624-3028; www.pugetmaritime.org). The shop and exhibits are open daily from noon to 5pm.
Nordic Heritage Museum
Housed in a former school building, this is primarily a neighborhood museum that focuses on the experiences of Scandinavian immigrants in Seattle's Ballard neighborhood. However, it also mounts exhibits of Scandinavian and Scandinavian-inspired art, and these temporary exhibits are what make this little museum worth seeking out for those who aren't of Scandinavian heritage. The Dream of America exhibit on the first floor does an excellent job of explaining why Scandinavians began immigrating to the United States and how they ended up settling in Ballard. Up on the third floor, each of the Nordic countries gets a display room of its own. In mid-July each year, the museum sponsors the Tivoli/Viking Days festival, which includes booths serving Nordic foods.
The Seattle Aquarium
Although it's not nearly as large and impressive as the Monterey Bay Aquarium or the Oregon Coast Aquarium, is still quite enjoyable and presents well-designed exhibits dealing with the water worlds of the Puget Sound region. The star attractions here are the playful river otters and the sea otters, as well as the giant octopus. There's also an underwater viewing dome from which you get a fish's-eye view of life beneath the waves, and each September you can watch salmon return up a fish ladder to spawn. Of course, there are also plenty of small tanks that allow you to familiarize yourself with the many fish of the Northwest, a beautiful coral-reef tank, and several smaller tanks that exhibit fish from distant waters. Life on the Edge focuses on tide-pool life along Washington's Pacific Ocean and Puget Sound shores, while Life of a Drifter highlights jellyfish.
Comfort Suites Downtown/Seattle Center
Although it's none too easy to find this place (call and get specific directions for the approach you'll be taking), the bargain rates and spacious rooms make the Comfort Suites worth searching out. Since it's located only 3 blocks from Seattle Center, you could feasibly leave your car parked at the hotel for most of your stay and walk or use public transit to get around. If you've brought the family, the suites are a good deal, and the proximity to Seattle Center will help moms and dads keep the kids entertained. Ask for a room away from the busy highway that runs past the hotel. The accommodations here are quite a bit nicer than at the nearby Holiday Inn, but otherwise the two hotels are comparable.
Seattle Marriott Waterfront
Located across Alaskan Way from Elliott Bay, this is Seattle's newest luxury hotel. Although it doesn't have the superb views of the nearby Edgewater, it's the only other option if you want to stay on the waterfront. The hotel seems to do a brisk business putting up people heading out on cruises (some cruise ships dock right across the street). The best views are from the large junior suites at the northwest corner of the property. Because of the way the hotel is designed, many standard rooms have only limited views, but they do have little balconies where you can stand and breathe in the salt air.
Chambered Nautilus Bed and Breakfast Inn
This Georgian colonial inn sits high above an apartment-lined street atop an ivy-covered embankment, out of view of the sidewalk. The surrounding shady forest gives it a very secluded feel -- you'll hardly realize you're in the middle of the city. The antiques-filled B&B, which dates from 1915, has a homey feel, and innkeepers Joyce Schulte and Steve Poole make sure guests are comfortable and well fed. Four of the rooms have porches; some have mountain views. Third-floor units have fireplaces and the best views. Be advised that this inn is not recommended for anyone who has trouble climbing stairs. Four suites, with VCRs, DVD players, kitchens, and porches, are located in an adjacent house, where children over 4 are welcome.
