Seattle is a city built around water, so it makes sense that some of its most interesting infrastructure is made to float. If you spend any time in the greater Seattle area, chances are you’ll cross one of the region’s floating bridges. Locals use them regularly, to cross from Seattle to the east side (Bellevue, […]

For travelers who appreciate history told through real places – and real deck planks – few experiences compare to exploring a museum that floats.
