Leaving Vancouver Island behind, the crossing to the United States lands you in Washington State, most often Seattle, close to Pike Place Market and the Space Needle. The waterfront's ferry terminal area connects straight into downtown, with the Chihuly Garden and Glass museum and the Museum of Pop Culture both an easy walk from the Seattle Center. For those with more time, a detour south to Mount Rainier's glaciers offers a striking contrast to the island scenery just left behind, and a ferry ride out to Bainbridge Island makes for a scenic half-day escape from the city.
