Erinn's Edibles: Space Needle and the Real World

We decided not to go up in the space needle. It was $16 a person and after talking to a couple of people who got off the elevator, we decided it was not worth it. We did lose each other in the gift shop. It is a circular shop on the ground floor and we were both circling it looking for each other. It was pretty funny.

We found this nice spot to take some pictures with the space needle.

We then left the Seattle Center and headed back down to Alaska Way, which is where the Real World House was. Here is a picture of the space needle as we drove away.

As we were walking down the street we saw the Golden Princess leaving. The Golden is a sister ship to the one we were on. Here are some pictures as it sails away.

I admittedly did not watch the Real World Seattle season (I have only watch one season in my life.), but Shannon was a big fan. Finding the house was high on her list of things to do in Seattle. The funny thing about it, is that when I was Seattle in June she was telling me she wanted to go while I was stopped at a railroad crossing directly in front of it, but had no idea that was it. The house was located at Pier 70

Evidently this is where some fight took place and somebody threw something into the ocean – guess you had to watch the show.

The things about this location, is that after the show was over a new owner bought the place and had totally redone the whole thing. So it does not look anything like it did during the Real World and the house is gone. But the door was here.

Here is Shannon by the door.

Now there is a nice restaurant where you can go eat (or in our case walk around and take pictures of.)

This is one of my favorite pictures. Over the course of the cruise Shannon and I took many pictures of the two of us by holding her camera out and taking the picture. This was our first attempt. As you can see we failed. I was standing to the right of Shannon. Many times during the cruise we would find this picture for a good laugh.
