Live from Spring Break Road Trip (March 28, 2018)
During this road trip, one of my dreams come
true. I first heard about the Space
Needle four years ago, and I was immediately attached to it because of its size
and shape. Now my dream of visiting it
had finally come true.
The Space Needle was built in 1962 for the World
Fair. It was built for tourists coming
to the growing town of Seattle, Washington.
During the construction, the Space Needle was slowly rising higher and
higher above Seattle. When the torch was
added, people were already waiting in line to see the architect miracle.
While we were waiting in line to get into the elevator, an old gentleman behind us said that when he was a boy, he went to the Space Needle during its initial opening in 1962. Many famous people such as Lyndon Johnson came visit the Space Needle. Even though the Space Needle was under renovation during our visit, the Seattle skyline with skyscrapers and the glistening Puget Sound water were breathtaking.

The history of the Space Needle coincided with the Space Age when people tried to explore space. This triggered more interest for me to know more about science and space.
