The Thea Foss Waterway in Tacoma
Making our oil tankers
Loading up with oil
A huge wind storm causes our oil tankers to spill their oil.
Using a boom to clean up the spill
Trying to swab up the spill
Detergent helps. But does it do more harm than good?
How long does it take a diaper to decompose? Fishing line? Glass?
Meeting the entrepreneurial Thea Foss on our scavenger hunt.
This ferry carried livestock
A very interesting pedal powered boat on display
Learning about the fresh/salt water estuary of Tacoma's Commencement Bay
Which is heavier, fresh or salt water?
Fresh water is less dense (one fist) so it is on top of salt water (two fists)
Time to be creative and make our own boats
Learning about port and starboard
The Foss Waterway Seaport!
A beautifully remodeled building
A beautiful place to live and to take care of!
