Sunny Days in a Rainy City

The Seattle Forecast looks good for the next couple days. So my suggestion is take a boat trip. I will give several different options for all activity and price levels.

Kayaking on Lake Union
Check out Aqua Verde http://www.aguaverde.com/default.asp
Aqua Verde offers hourly kayak rentals and guided tours. They even have a kayaking Happy Hour. Their location includes a cafe!
UPDATE: Living Social has a Kayak deal today with Moss Bay Rowing Club. Here is the link http://livingsocial.com/deals/37522-two-hour-single-13-or-double-18-kayak-rental. Only $13 for two hours of rowing. 



If kayaking is not for you take a sail boat ride on Lake Washington, with Sail Sand Point. Their memberships are very affordable and you can learn how to sail in the Pacific Northwest.

If you have ever looked out over the sound you may have noticed several ferries cruising around this could be another great option for those who want to take a boat ride for an affordable cost. Adults cost $7.10 and children 19 and under $5.40. If you ride the Ferry to Bainbridge there are some great cafes and backerys along with shops to stroll around through.

Lastly if you have money to spend I would choose the MV Olympus. Great service and an amazing yacht! Check it out by clicking on the link. http://www.yachtolympus.com/index.html
