Fremont Troll is an art project completed several years ago. The size of the Troll is quite overwhelming. The volkswagon in the Troll hand looks like a toy car. There are usually a crowd of people gathered at the Troll anytime day or night.

A local seafood restaurant with several locations. This one has the option for walk up fish and chips or chowder. Inside will be more fine dining. The location of this one is great, because you can walk the boardwalk by Puget Sound and have a great day of sightseeing. Check out The Old Curiosity Shop or the Seattle Aquarium. Or perhaps a trip on the Argosy for a day on the water. There is also the option of the water taxi to West Seattle ( a much cheaper option) for a quick trip on the water. The water taxi takes you to West Seattle, but is a long walk to any services.

The first Seattle Ivar's. Lots of history of Native Americans with pictures on the walls of the restaurant. This is fine dining for most, but right on Lake Washington. You can also walk up for fish and chips or chowder for a cheaper option. The restaurant has Sunday bunch.

At one time the best Thai food in Seattle. Just a little hole in the wall in the U-district off the Ave. (near University of Washington on University Ave not to be confused with University Street which is downtown). Lines are long, so expect to wait. Servers can be abrupt, but usually very good food. Serving hours can vary, but usually open for lunch and dinner.

I love this park. It is right on the puget sound and during warm weather is packed with people enjoy the sun. Crowds stay late into the night. Bon fires are common. Difficult to find parking on nice days, so go early.
