This is an all-day event in Seattle. For $95 per person at the above link, we get entrance into all three attractions. You are responsible for buying your own ticket for 1030am. All attractions open at 1000am. I am not sure how many tickets they sell for each time period, so 1045am should be ok as well. When it's not busy, timed entry isn't strictly enforced.

We begin the day by driving to Kingston and taking the Fast Ferry at 845am to Pier 50 in Seattle, adjacent to Colman Dock. This is a 40- minute ride and food is not available. The cost is $15 per person round-trip (half off if you bring your Medicare card). From there, we walk about 1 mile to the Westlake Center mall and board the Monorail ($8 round-trip or $4 for Seniors/ORCA card or credit card only). The Monorail is a 3 minute ride.
After arriving at Seattle Center, we hit the Space Needle first. I estimate about 1.5 to 2 hours here. Then we go to Chihuly Garden and Glass for about another hour, then to the Museum of Pop Culture for another 1.5 to 2 hours.
We will stop to eat somewhere along the way, probably at Seattle Center's Armory Food Hall or the Bar at Chihuly Garden. Some people are quicker to go through museums than others, so we do not have to stay together or eat together.
We will take the Monorail back to Westlake Center mall and walk back to Pier 50 for the 5pm Fast Ferry. We should aim to be at the Ferry dock at 430pm as this is a busy commuter time. The last ferry of the day is at 645pm.
Note -I have never taken the Kingston Fast Ferry before.
Carpooling from Sequim LEAVES John Wayne Marina at 7am. Parking at the Kingston Ferry is $11 for 12 hours. We should be back at the Marina by 7pm. The time frame for the event are the times we will be on the Ferries and in Seattle. It does not include travel time because not everyone will be leaving from Sequim.
