I think Seattle is going to one of those cities which takes a while to get to know. Consequently I'm not going to get to know it, but I feel it has potential. The hotel I booked is a couple of blocks from the Space Needle and is rather more impressive than I expected given the price. I don't tend to bother with pics of hotel rooms, but I made an exception for this one because it's just cool
As you can see, there was a break in the cloud just after I arrived, so I thought I should make the most of it and go do the compulsory trip up the Space Needle. It's not that high a tower but it was quite cool all the same. Having a look around from up there reinforced what I thought earlier, that it looks like an interesting town. It was unusually windy up there apparently, and damn cold (the staff estimated about 40F - or about 4C). Got a chance to try out the beanie and gloves :) Still nothing like what I'll cop when I get to NYC and Montreal, but certainly the first time I've really felt cold so far.
A couple more pics of the tower
Tomorrow is all about Battlestar Galactica http://www.empsfm.org/exhibitions/index.asp?categoryID=164&ccID=286 . Then off to NYC on Thursday.
