“Let’s do fun things for free.” It’s a phrase that we love to say but unfortunately, it doesn’t always come up. To kick off October, the Port Landing at Fife Apartments Blog is sharing a few things that you can do without spending any money. While you will need transportation to get from your apartment in Fife, WA to Tacoma, the drive is only ten minutes away. Enjoy a day or an evening this week doing as many of these free things as you can. Let’s go have fun! Let’s go on an adventure!
Visit the Bridge of Glass
“The Chihuly Bridge of Glass is Tacoma's stunning link to the Thea Foss Waterway and the Museum of Glass. The 500 foot pedestrian bridge holds three amazing Chihuly glass installations, open to the public 24 hours a day. Linger at sunset on a date, and you'll see why its [sic] one of the most romantic places in Washington.”
Relax in the W.W. Seymour Botanical Conservatory
With more than 3,500 panes of glass and 250 species of exotic tropical plants, this is a great place to come and enjoy nature in a Victorian setting.
“Surrounded by the lovely grounds of Wright Park in Tacoma's historic Stadium district, the W.W. Seymour Botanical Conservatory is one of only three public Victorian-style conservatories on the West Coast. “
Breathe fresh air at the Pacific Bonsai Museum
“The Pacific Bonsai Museum features world-class bonsai from around the globe. Free and open to the public six days a week, this cultural gem offers contemporary and traditional bonsai exhibits, group tours, education and special events.”
Explore the Children’s Museum of Tacoma
“The museum's playscapes and programs support children's growth through play by addressing age-appropriate development, especially in the areas of creativity, social and emotional skills, cognitive and critical thinking skills, gross and fine motor development, and early literacy learning.”
Last of all, searching for sand dollars is a great activity that can be done at Gig Harbor.
