1 Day 1 World Project: 1:00 pm – 2:00 pm

For the 1:00 pm entry in my newΒ Β 1Β Day 1 World Project I have thisΒ stormyΒ view of Seattle taken from our Sky City table at the top of the Space Needle. Β The restaurant makes a complete 360 degree rotation every 47 minutes and Β John, Ryan and I recently spent a fantastic 2 1/2 hours celebrating Ryan’s birthday while enjoyingΒ the incredibleΒ views. Β You might remember we spent Ryan’s actual 13th birthday giving away free books as part ofΒ World Book Night 2014 and even though he was incredibly generousΒ with his special day I promised we would plan something fun later that was all about him. Β Well, this lunch was definitely in his honor but John and I enjoyed it as much as he did!

Our first 1 Day 1 World postsΒ captured noontime moments from Germany, Canada, England, Singapore and the American states of California, Illinois, Oregon, Texas and Washington. If you have a photo or story to share about your 1:00 pm hour I’d love to see it! Β  Please tag your post 1 Day 1 World Project for easy reader searches and/or link your post in a comment below so we can all enjoy your view and together we’ll build a virtual 24 hour day filled with images from around the world.

If you’re new to the 1 Day 1 World Project please take a look at my introductory postΒ here. Β This 1:00 pm post will remain open for new submissions until the end of Saturday, May 17th and a new post for the 2:00 pm hour will open for entries Sunday, May 18th.

      I’m glad you like the photo, Jude! The restaurant is a little pricey but it includes a trip up in the glass elevator and the chance to relax while watching the view is pretty wonderful. To save a little though you can always purchase an elevator ticket and walk around the observation deck (outside!) which is right above the restaurant. There is a cafe here too for snacks and drinks. πŸ™‚ I’m looking forward to seeing your Spring Festival photos!

        Outside sounds a little dangerous! I’m not that good at heights. Relaxing with a nice glass of wine and watching the view go by is much more my style πŸ™‚
