We are spending 1 night in Seattle before we board our cruise, has anyone been to the Hendrix museum ? Or have any other suggestions on sites worth seeing?

We went to the Museum of Pop Culture. We enjoyed it. We also went to Chihuly Garden & Glass (probably my favorite stop in Seattle), Pike Place Market and the harbor tour. Oh and we went to the aquarium.

We never could get in the space needle. The lines were so long. Maybe next trip.

Check in to City Pass. We bought it and saved some money.

There is a nice display of Chihuly (spelling?) glass art near the Space Needle.

He is an amazing artist. I'm not much of an artsy guy, but his work is very beautiful.

There is an "underground Seattle" tour that is fun.

This for me as well. Also saw a Mariners game. Would have liked to have seen the Sounders.

I also enjoyed the Stalking Seattle tour. Pearl Jam, Nirvana, etc. just a few hours and affordable.

We planned to do this too but were just too tired by game time.

I don't really care about MLB but my husband likes to check out the stadiums when we travel. It just means we'll have to go back to Seattle some day.

Been to Seattle a few times and my last trip finally went to the EMP aka Hendrix museum. I thought it was just ok and I'm into music. If you're a huge gearhead, you will probably enjoy it more. I think Stalking Seattle was more interesting as was the food tour. Chihuly was cool too.
