Ports of call

Seattle, Washington

3 out of 5
Really dirty. Went on the hop on and hop off bus tour. Stopped at Pikes Market. Filthy. Plus, for a city that prides itself on acceptance, they are extremely poor at handicap facilities. We are not handicapped, but time and again I saw major issues when someone in a wheelchair was trying to participate in looking at your city.

Juneau, Alaska

3 out of 5
Not a very pretty place, but you can take advantage of lots of excursions.
