Bremerton Ferry

While in Seattle we took the ferry from Seattle to Bremerton one evening about 8:00pm. It was about a one hour ferry ride to Bremerton and one hour to return to Seattle.

As we left the pier we enjoyed view of the Seattle skyline with the Space Needle being the prominent structure.

The view of Mt. Rainier at sunset was spectacular. It looked like a giant pink and white cupcake. Mt. Rainier is 54 miles southeast of Seattle and stands 14,411 feet above sea level.

We arrived at Bremerton where we were instructed to disembark the ferry, but we just turned around and got right back on the ferry for the trip back to Seattle. The Puget Sound Naval Shipyard shares the inlet with the ferry dock.

The return ride gave us the opportunity to see the Seattle skyline lit up at night. It was a beautiful site and so peaceful and quiet with just the hum of the ferry motor as we approached the city.

We were so glad that we took the late evening ferry...it was a special way to see Seattle and Mt. Rainier.
