Given the numbers of reviews here which mention the "owner" being rude, this is what I came here to…read morewrite, amongst other things. The rental started out fine - a young woman helped me figure out the boat size, get me checked in, and familiar with the route and map. Then she disappeared, and someone changed the boat she ordered (which we carefully figured out was right for me) to a different longer boat. I'm not sure why. It was a cloudy day and there were about 75 available green plastic boats. She had mentioned there was a new boat, even shorter than the 14' one she put me in, but somehow it was too hard to get to (according to the rude gentleman who took over for her. He was saying snarky things to me, like would I mind if the boat they gave me was 5" longer than the one they promised???? It made not sense. I was solo kayaking in the afternoon. The young man who put me in the boat told me before he pushed me off that he would be going over some safety points. That consisted of one tip - always keep your lifejacket on. Speaking of safety - I have about 12 years of experience kayaking and having a whistle is pretty important. They had to search several PFD's to find one with a whistle. I had to ask for that. I was kayaking SOLO! Should have been a given. They have a set way of putting people in boats which starts with sitting on the metal grated dock. I am in my 6th decade of life, and getting down to sitting on the ground like that isn't a slam dunk. Plus I had a scraped knee (us oldsters have falls). The guy wasn't reading the room. When I asked him to adjust the foot pedals, he snapped back that he was going to do that next. Anyway, they recommended I make my way across the wide channel to the other side where the houseboats were, but I felt wobbly right there at the dock and thought better of that and instead hugged the side of the channel we were already on. There was no instruction as to what to do if the boat tipped over. Not that they could have given me a whole wet exit lesson - I already knew what to do, but I certainly didn't want to capsize and with all the motor boat activity that afternoon, I knew the paddle would be a bit nerve wracking. On the way out (after just 30 minutes, having returned to the dock to get out of the water) I told the young woman at the check out that they need to add an "in case of emergency" phone number to the waiver. Her response was silly "we are the emergency phone number". Yes, well if I were to capsize and perhaps drown, you might need to reach someone ON MY END. Duh. Rude man had some parting remarks I wasn't interested in. Because of his snarkiness alone, I'll never be back and am telling others. I think he is in the wrong business.

(FYI---Rueda is a sort of "square dancing" for salsa dancers---parnters dance in a circle (aka…read more"wheel"); a person calls out moves, and partners do the move which was called; partners are switched around the circle in the circle---It's totally fun & somewhat easy). While in Seattle over the weekend, I happened upon the Seattle Rueda website when searching for something to do on a Sunday afternoon. "Seattle Rueda" is a website/blog which covers all the Casino de Rueda/Cuban Salsa activities in the Seattle area. As it so happens, Sundays are a night they have Rueda practice. Score! During the warm months, Rueda practice is outside at Gasworks Park. Specifically, the practice is on the Wallingford Steps--these are a steps which are just across the street from Gasworks Park. It's such a perfect spot. The steps are cool with lots of tile work, and there are large circular areas which are just perfect for a rueda. This area is also nice, because the surrounding buildings offer shade, and the breeze from the water was also nice...until it got chilly toward the end (but I'm hot-blooded, so I was happy!). So, the practice is for two hours. If there are new dancers, one can get some introductory lessons/basics off to the side. I am fairly familiar with rueda so I was more interested in getting some practice in "the wheel". The group was really cool. Once everybody showed up we had about 30-40 people dancing the rueda (we even had a circle on the inside of the big one). There was mainly one caller for the evening. We went over some of the basic moves. She even worked in some new moves for everyone. The people were all very nice and welcoming. I'm new to Rueda & Casino (Cuban Salsa), so it was good to see how other people dance to this style of dance. I had a totally awesome time! Oh, I did forget to "donate" $5 (I'll do that next time). Their music was played of a small boom box which skipped sometime---it didn't matter though--we all had fun. As the weather gets colder, I hear they will move practice indoors somewhere up in Greenwood. Be sure to check their website for practice info and any other Cuban Salsa info in the Seattle area. I can't wait to dance with this group again!

We knew we had to try We decided to do the hardest room at Puzzle Break - Escape from Seattle, The World's Fair Affair We had a group of 6 with varying levels of experience with escape rooms (it was one of our friends first room while two of us have done more than 50 rooms) and the room felt perfect for the size! There were a lot of moving parts and lots to do in to this room so nobody was really standing around. We thought the room had a great balance between technology and analog. Puzzles were logical and hard in ways, but solvable and doable! We all had a really great time and got out with 16 minutes to spare! Communication/organization is key for this room Mason our game master was great and helpful! There was also a giant lounge to wait in for our game to start with tons of couches, games, puzzles, and water. A great escape room at a great venue! Would absolutely come again and would love to do Puppeteer's Workshop in the future

Big props to the Puzzle Break team for allowing us to keep our time as they encountered a same day issue where one of their rooms was damaged. They handled it very professionally and we were still able to keep our time slot so we're thankful to the team. We had 8 people and surprisingly, most of us had something to do the whole time. Everyone had a part to play but some parts we partnered up to accomplish faster. Easily a room you can do with 4-8 people with moderate difficulty, with the more people making it easier. Puzzles were fun, a few challenging ones, but overall pretty linear progression without weird redundancies that can happen with some other escape rooms. This room is great to bring friends who are new to escape rooms as there are still a few surprises (not in the scary sense). Thanks to Puzzle Break for a great time! I didn't book the room so I didn't get the name of the person my friend spoke to but during our experience Neo did the introduction prior to the game and guided us on time when we asked (we only asked for one hint so there was minimal interaction on that part). If this review encouraged you to try it, I hope you enjoy it!

Great stop for any visitors or locals!…read more The cabin had AC just in case you go on a scorching hot Seattle day because that's what we did. The line can get long, but it moves fast. That area is such a tourist trap, but it's a must see and a must do when visiting greater Seattle and as a local obviously I like to go down there and explore my city too! As you can see, my pictures reflect the one-of-a-kind city skyscape with the space needle, lumen, and T-Mobile Park (Seahawks & mariners) Port Seattle, Alki Beach, the gorgeous Puget Sound: Resurrection Bay, and off to the distance more islands which I believe is Bainbridge? We didn't see any Sealife, ton of seagulls but it's not uncommon to see Harbor seals and porous pod, and if you're really lucky orcas!

I can't imagine going on a hot day. We did it when it was cloudy, even so no airflow. If you get really close to the door, you can kind of feel a tiny amount air and breathe. By the end it was so stuffy we were sweating with 4 adults and a toddler. No alcohol if riding with a kid or underage person. It was okay. Do it if you want to cross off your touristy list, otherwise, the view from the ferry to Bainbridge is better!

I've never played bubble soccer before, but after my experience with Seattle Bubble Soccer I know I…read moredefinitely want to play again! Chris was my contact and he was super responsive to my emails and answered all the questions that I had. I only checked prices with two other competitors, but Seattle Bubble Soccer definitely had the best prices for amount of play time/number of bubbles. I was planning a party so I did their packaged deal #1, which is one hour of play with 6 bubbles. You can also add bubbles for $25 each. During the winter months, you must play indoors and book an indoor venue, which I thought would be a headache, but Chris does an amazing job of getting you connected to a facility and checking their availability. Basically all you have to do is call the facility to make a payment. The packaged deal does NOT include the fee for the venue rental. I rented from Montlake Community Center--would recommend--and used their basketball courts as the field. Trust me... I don't know if you want anything bigger than that even if you have 10 people. It can get real exhausting, real fast. The hour was broken up into quarters of about 15 minutes of play. During the breaks, the bubbles were reinflated and wiped down. I won't lie--I got real sweaty in there. The bubbles can get real hot, especially with all the exertion of carrying around the bubble weight and trying to knock other people down/me getting knocked down and trying to get back up. I might suggest knee pads because I got quite a few bruises trying to get up. My only other thing I would bring up is my neck is really sore from playing, not sure why but I guess I shouldn't have skipped neck day. I would definitely recommend bubble soccer as a birthday activity, team builder, or if you're just bored and looking to do something different and I would definitely recommend booking through Seattle Bubble Soccer!

His helpers ('refs') ran the whole party and had the boys sweating, laughing, and rolling around for an hour and a half. Well worth it.
