On our list.... is it a one hour thing or more? Trying to plan our trip out. Thanks!
Last time I was there it was going on most of the day
What I meant was can you see the fish market in an hour or should we budget longer?
That would be Pike's Place Mkt. If all those lttle shops interest you, or you actually want to eat there, I'd give it longer than an hour. If all you want to do is say, "Been there, saw/done that," an hour should suffice. By the way, watch the fish thrower. I understand that they keep throwing the same fish over and over again (usually a King Salmon).

Do they still have tours of the Boeing plant? I did that 20 years ago. Great.

Sorry, my fault--it was right in your OP.

Going up to Vancouver then taking the ferry over to Victoria is cool. We saw whales and seals along the way, and it is all beautiful.

Vancouver is like a 2, 2.5 hour drive.

I was planning a trip to Seattle that never materialized. The advice I got was the best thing to see in Seattle was Vancouver.
