See ships and boats make the change from saltwater Puget Sound to freshwater Lake Union via the historic Ballard locks (26' of difference in the elevation of these two bodies of water). Watch salmon make the same trip at the fish ladder - the kids will love this. If you're lucky, you may see opportunistic sea lions catching lunch at the fish ladder :)
