This well-known image of Seattle is called the 'Space Needle'
and was built for the 1962 World's Fair

This fountain is not too far from the Space Needle. The water spurts
from the fountain in rythm to music that is played from speakers placed
all around. I visited on a beautiful day and there were several children
playing in the water and sliding down the side of the fountain on plastic
lunch trays.

Here's a close-up of the fountain with the kids dancing around it.

This puppeteer was standing at the base of the Space Needle entertaining
the passing tourists. The part I found to be the most entertaining was
the guy sitting behind him watching the show.

I found these street performers standing outside a Starbucks. It looked
like something that would be found in Louisiana.

In the heart of the Pike Place Market is this fish market. When customers
order a fish the employees put on a show by tossing it over everyone's heads
to the guys behind the counter. Signs hang on the walls stating
"Caution: Low Flying Fish"

This street entertainer wheeled an entire pianno out to a street corner
in the Pike Place Market.
