Tomorrow marks the start of the Elliot Bay Water Taxi season which runs through the end of October (however there are rumors that the taxi will soon provide year-round service). There will be a kick off party at Seacrest Dock in West Seattle at noon with food, live music and activities. King County Councilman Dow Constantine will be on hand to host the event, hopefully wearing his bright yellow Converse that he wore last year. Seriously, his shoes are awesome. Also, rides during the day will be free, instead of the $3.00 it normally costs for a one way trip. If you’re driving, I suggest parking up near the West Seattle Farmer’s Market at the Junction, browse around the market, then take the free shuttle down to the dock. That way you can enjoy two fun activities going on in West Seattle this Sunday.
