Happy Hour and Dessert in Capitol Hill

  Happy Hour Street Tacos with Carne Asada and a Miami Vice from Poquitos.  Poquitos is located in Capitol Hill and they're serving up authentic Mexican cuisine and cocktails. Their happy hour deal is a good one- during Ocho hour, everything on the happy hour menu is just $8! I went with a Miami Vice, a classic Pina Colada with Strawberry.

The Museum of Flight

My family and I checked out The Museum of Flight for First Thursday this month.  Every month, the first Thursday is free at many of Seattle's museums.  The admission price is twenty bucks per adult at The Museum of Flight so its a pretty good deal.  It was only my second visit there, the first time was in 2011 with my parents who were visiting from out of town.  The whole place remained unchanged so it wasn't too exciting for me but my sons seemed to enjoy it.  They liked seeing all the planes hanging from the ceiling and they loved running around on the ramps.  There's also a large gift shop and cafeteria, too.  The Museum of Flight is located at 9404 E. Marginal Way S. in Seattle.
