Seattle waterfront concerts

[Gardyloo]

For those using Seattle as a point of departure, you might be interested in the "Summer Nights at the Pier" program, concerts held on a pier immediately adjacent to the Pier 66 Cruise Terminal. These are usually pretty wonderful things; those staying at the new Marriott can virtually attend them whether or not they want to [img]http://messages.cruisecritic.com/infopop/emoticons/icon_wink.gif[/img] You might check to see if anything tickles your fancy when you're in town.

It's been a while since I checked the schedule. This is about the best news I've had since I went to see Carly Simon in the Gorge @ George a couple years ago.

A bad day cruising is better than a good day at work.

The worst cruise I ever took was pretty damned good.

Platinum with RCI, a couple cruises with NCL and 1 with CCL

Clock remove but cruise in Dec
