Clock tour

We spent a lovely day in July walking around Seattle doing the Clock Tour. The web site is: http://www.zombiezodiac.com/rob/ped/clock/map.htm. Alonda's sisters found this tour last October when they visited the condo (we weren't home!). They liked it so much, they recommended that we go, too. These are from the pictures we took. We have not posted all of the clocks. You will have to go to the web site if you want to find out about all of them. You will also find out a lot more information about the clocks.

This is the first clock on the tour. It stands over King Street Station, the AMTRAK station in Seattle.

This clock isn't on the tour, but should be! We happened to know about it since we had been inside this building before. This clock is in the large waiting room across the street from King Street Station. We had looked over the building years ago when we were looking for places to have a Junior/Senior Prom.

This clock is down in the Pioneer Square area of Seattle. This is the part of the city where all of the Klondike Gold Rush business was taking place over a hundred years ago. Very picturesque!

This clock is inside the bus tunnel. The city has just added underground streetcars to the tunnels they built for the buses. The clock is made from tools and parts used in the construction of the tunnels!

This is the Pendulum Clock. The clock doesn't actually have a pendulum, but it looks like it should.

Alonda's sisters never found this clock! The web site instructions missed the actual location and direct you to the wrong garage. Yes, this clock is inside a parking garage.

Here is a shop that is not afraid to advertise. They also have a very nice clock outside their store ...

This is the Question Mark clock. What do you think the question is?

Tiffany's has, of course, a large clock decorated with gold and marble. We don't know what Tiffany's has to do with Atlas holding up the world ...

Bergman's has been a fixture for dedicated suitcase seekers for decades.

This is the shot of Seattle that everyone remembers. The Pike Place Market, but not the clock, is world famous for flying fish. This is the place they mean when you read the book Fish!.

This clock is at Colman Dock. This is where the ferry boats come into Seattle. The clock has been here, in various forms and locations, for over a hundred years.

These clocks are not on the tour. They hang outside the REI store in Seattle. They are too far away from the other clocks to make a convenient walk, but if you patronize REI, you don't want to miss them.

This is the last clock. Notice that Mt Everest has its own time zone?
