Tourista, Part 2 -- The Locks

Ben's mom and brother came to visit this past week, which basically meant we were tourists all weekend. This is what happened.


We visited the Ballard Locks where boats can move from one area of water to another area of water in Seattle. (No I still haven't really figured out which is which, I'm continue to work on my pronunciation of Puget.) There were actually two--yes TWO--salmon in the fish ladder and one tiny guy who was probably lost. And a seal hunting around the water. The Locks are so much more exciting right now because there are actual boats going through, including the largest barge and tugboat I've ever seen. But there aren't pictures of any of these things. This is a thingy they would use to tie off the boats I think. And apparently Pittsburgh had something to do with some part of the building or running of this place. Maybe I just got excited because it said Pittsburgh...don't judge me!
