Guess again

Traveling in Seattle requires mapping programs, a strong stomach, and the willingness to drive around confused.

Here's a great example.  Traveling West (left) on route 518, one wants to go to the Tukwila International Boulevard Station.  This is one of the stops on the Link, a great train that travels through Seattle.

So on 518, there is a sign saying to exit for the station at 1.  As you travel down, you must select the right turn at 2, the left turn at 3, the right turn at 4, go straight at 5 and right at six.

There are NO more signs after the one at 1.  You're driving and have to make five fast guesses.  Since you have a 50:50 chance of guessing correctly if you've not done this before, your chances of getting there are about 3%.

Or, you can close your eyes and Trust the Force.
