There are also lots of areas for kids to interact. I also loved that they make the research labs so accessible to the public, with signs explaining what they are doing and windows to watch the scientists work. I've never been to a museum that did that and I think it is so special. First floor is about culture with a large emphasis on indigenous cultures. I really enjoyed the weaving exhibit. Second floor is biology with some stunning set ups of ecosystems and lots of stuffed animals. Third floor is paleontology and archaeology. I found the archaeology exhibit not as engaging as the rest. The fossils are very cool and well laid out.

I didn't receive any notification about the time change and arrived 10 minutes early to the time listed on my ticket and 20 minutes late to the show. I wasn't ushered in to the performance hall with any sort of direction, there was no acknowledgement of the mixup, I stood (in platform heels) for the entire show in front of a door and with a partially obstructed view, had to leave fairly unceremoniously due to the late show they squeezed in afterwards (presumably to sell more tickets) and to top things off they didn't have sparkling water when I tried to order it after the show, which is less annoying but was the cherry on top. Don't book with them.

My family joined to help my daughter form her own sense of Jewish identity which she started asking about when she was eight. She now has a sense of Jewish identity that would never have been so well formed had we not engaged with this community. And I have a much deeper understanding of my own relationship with Judaism. I'm Jewish because my father was Jewish and I choose to be a Jew, my mother never converted; they were both firm atheists. The Overbrook delicatessen was my temple, ritual language: Yiddish, ritual foods: lox and other smoked fish, ritual giving: Israel Fund - can on the counter next to the register. Humor was the practice. I've been teaching in the Shalom Sunday school for seven or eight years now and I love the inclusivity and diversity even within our own tribe.

The 8th style is the best and only option (in my opinion) for starting the study of tango. I have…read morefound that Tango is not only fun but a serious study and an art and as such it has a basic pallete from which to create. I mean, that's what I got and that's why I keep going back for review (it helps that there is a returning student price break, yeah!!). I did not start with "The 8th" and for me that was a problem. I could not bring order and meaning to what I was doing in the dance . "The 8th" class structure is like a typical college course which includes a syllabus so you know exactly what you are going to learn and where it is going to lead you. The instructors are the coolest too. Jason and Sarah just made those beggining steps, for me, so clear and understandable that (as long as I put in the practice on my own too) I could really make progress. All the instructors were really great for me. Bill Juziak, Carol Smith, Juliet McMains, Greg Constantino, Rachel, Boris, Kim, Liz. I can't say enough good things about the instructors and the quality of instruction I got and continue to get from them.

I really disliked the approach that was taken by 8th Style. Moving immediately into close embrace…read morefor a total beginner tango dancer is silly - it requires far more than a beginner is capable of. An incremental approach is better - getting some success on the basic patterns, etc. I much prefer the other Beginning class I had - from Tony and Illana I gave two rather than one stars because the teachers were decent people - they genuinely cared and were very good dancers. The issue is with the curriculum. BTW - I had fairly significant swing dance background - but tango is quite a different beast - and that did little to help except give me the understanding that starting easy and building on success is better than being totally lost and having no idea of how the process is working.

While they're off hanging out at Pike Place Market and the Seattle Wheel we locals will be hanging out at our own special little tourist spot: the Rubber Chicken Museum. Housed within the glorious confines of Archie McPhee, the store with literally EVERYTHING you want and NOTHING you need, the RCM is an ode to all things rubber...and chicken. If it's yellow, plastic, stretchy and clucks you'll find it here. From a giant life-sized rubber chicken for a true selfie moment, to the tiniest, nearly microscopic iterations of this flexible bird the RCM enchants with its #rubberchickenglory. Folks both young and old marvel at its amazingness. And if you listen closely, you'll often hear people lament "I used to have that exact rubber chicken when I was a kid." I dare you to leave here without buying a rubber chicken (conveniently available for sale near the exit, just like at all the more well-known museums). I double dare ya!
