Cool but almost too cool...

Posted by Rachel from Seattle, WA on 1/6/06

I have lived in the seattle area all my life. I heard it was there, but didn't visit until a friend came to visit and I was looking for touristy things to do. It's about 15 min out of seattle. It was raining. We came, we found it, the dome thing was new, we said, WOW, this is where a legend lies. Then we left, it's a quick stop off 405, and not much more then that.
