A smile crossed my face as I viewed sea lions playing like children. I gaped wide-eyed at a Seattle waterfall that put Niagara to shame. I ate salmon minutes after it was harvested from the river. Ditto for Alaskan King Crab. My favorite experience of the whole vacation, though, was going to Safeco Field, home of the Seattle Mariners, and watching a game between the M's and the Baltimore Orioles.
Safeco field is only two years old.
It's one of the new stadiums built to look like the parks of yesteryear. It's a nice park with a cozy baseball feel, but it has too many bells and whistles. Yeah, too modern for me. He plays the way we all want our athletes to play. Safeco Field was a delicious appetizer for me.
