Rhapsodies

Well after years of construction and traffic congestion the University of Washington and Capitol Hill stations for the Sound Transit Light rail were opened yesterday and naturally the city made a huge event out of it.

I couldn’t resist and spent a few hours checking it out riding it to the two locations… I took pictures.
