Rainforest Cafe

We thought Rainforest Cafe would be a fun way to start our Seattle adventure. The kiddos had never been, so it seemed like an exciting way to kickstart the vacation.

The boys enjoyed the animatronic crocodile greeting us, but Grace wasn't interested. As we ventured in, she lit up at the sight of the floor to ceiling fishtank columns. She watched the fish zoom around while we waited for our table.

The hostess thought she was giving us a special treat when she sat us by the elephants. But they were a bit too life-like for our two-year-old. We hoped she would get used to them, but every ten minutes there is a thunderstorm inside Rainforest Cafe, which truly freaked her out. And then the elephants started trumpeting...so we moved to a table closer to the butterflies where she could see the monkeys. 

Still, every thunderstorm she wanted out of the place! We ate as quickly as we could and got the heck out of there!

NEXT TIME...hopefully she'll realize it's all a show.

Hayden's review :: I liked the crocodile and the delicious food. The mini hot dogs were cute and the mini cheeseburgers were awesome.

Bayley's review :: I liked the magnetic rocks (in the gift shop) and the big fountain. It did scare Gracie, so that lowered it down to a 7.8 from me. On the pizza the cheese was top notch, but they only had one pepperoni per slice.
