  An unexpected 1/2 day in Seattle...what to do? Grey's Anatomy re-enactment it was! I decided to head to Bainbridge Island and do a "Derek Shepherd" impression; looking pensively over the waters towards the city. (Leaving Bill and Melinda's house on Mercer for another day y'all :) For less than the price of admission to a movie, I was granted round-trip panoramic mountain and ocean views. The ferry ride alone is worth the trip. I walked on (construction on the harbour front but access still convenient). Just like ferries at home, there are washrooms, food & drink and diversions on board. There are also huge tables if one feels like a meal or has work to do. The terminal in Seattle had an overwhelming odor of popcorn that day. Not unpleasant... There were rogue pigeons, a wine bistro, fast food, a convenience store etc. I bought a ticket online but you can also purchase at the booth there. I had a small moment of panic when I didn't understand how to scan my ticket through the machine (slide the bar code through the diagonal slot at the top of the turnstile) and could not find help among the rushing passengers. However, an employee came to my rescue. If you hesitate on the foot-ramps while embarking or getting off, it's possible to get really choice pics of the respective harbours.

  Great mode of transport. Use as much as we can. We try to head across the Sound as much as possible. Great mode of transit. Lines aren't too bad and you can always check ahead online. Love the upper deck for great views and photos. Pack a lunch or dinner instead of going on one of those expensive cruises. Same views, much cheaper.

  It was the most rewarding experience to go whale watching, and from the ferire as it crosses Puget Sound you can see Seattle, needle, Ferris wheel and all the beautiful buildings as we ride into the sunset on this beautiful cruise ship.

  Advice for out of state visitors. Not as slick, well run and efficient as the BC ferry system across the border in Canada, and obviously with a lot of mixed feelings from the locals, Washington Ferries is still an affordable, great experience for visitors. Whether for a short half, full day or overnight trip across the sounds, out to the San Juan islands or further afield to the Olympic Peninsula think about adding a ferry trip to your visit.
