Spotted this on the way to work this morning. Walking across Seattle Center I saw the sun coming up behind the Ferris Wheel at the Fun Forest. The Mural Amphitheater is in the foreground. My iPhone wasn't able to get the top of the Space Needle in the shot from where I was standing.
Funny thing is, or sad thing depending on your point of view, the sun is actually setting on the old Fun Forest. It's slated to close forever next year or the year after. Seems folks just don't go to the old amusement park like they did when I was a kid. This was the first place we went when my friends and I were allowed to take the bus in from the south end on our own. I was 12 or 13 at the time. It seemed SO far from home.
Not sure what will replace this landmark. Hope it's something that generates as many memories for so many others.
