WORKING WATERFRONT

All hands on deck - help load crates onto the ship with a big crane. View Puget Sound through the glass-bottom on the ship. Nearby, boats are built and tested. The ship is in port and the trains are at the station - the Working Waterfront is action-packed and full of real world Olympia connections.
