We live in Hoodsport and take 101 S. to 106 (which is closed now and we have to use the Purdy Cut Off Rd.) and through Belfair and then to Bremerton. Have taken the ferry from Bremerton to Seattle, but love the one from Bainbridge Island even better. They both end up in Seattle. I dislike the one from Kingston to Edmonds though as usually a longer line and traffic to reach Seattle. Isn't the waterfront area of Seattle, Pike's Market, Space Needle, Pioneer Square, etc. awesome? Always games and a lot going on at the Seattle Center too up the hill aways. Saw the Artifacts of the Titantic exhibit up there at the Science Building a few summers ago. A friend of mine who lives in Alaska is a descendent of the Denny family who helped found Seattle. (after the Native Americans, however) You probably noticed all the things named after them in Seattle...e.g. Denny Hill, Denny Dr., etc.
