Seattle Duck Ride

While we were in Seattle back in March we rode one of those amphibious ducks. They start on land, then go into one of the lakes.
I always like a city skyline seen from the water.
And the views of an old gasworks, now a park, are unusual.
Visit Our World Tuesday to see lots more interesting sights.

    Very nice! Now that I'm officially retired, I hope to ride one of those ducks and make it to some of the many parks around here.... Gas Works included.

    I too like city skylines from the water. Love the shot of city looking like a mountain.

    Those amphibious ducks are quite remarkable. I remember the Amphicar from the early 1960's. Thats quite a beautiful skylibe bathed in blue light!

    It looks like lots of fun. We went to Seattle last year. We could see the gas works across the lake from our hotel.

    Very nice photos of a beautiful city Al. I really need to go to the "gas works" and intend to do it soon.
    Whenever I see one of those Duck Boats, I think about the one that crashed in Philadelphia...
