Activities for family members not coming to Gnomedex?

Permalinks to this entry: individual page or in monthly context. For more material from my journal, visit my home page or the archive.

My wife and two young school-age daughters (5 and 7) are coming down to Seattle with me during Gnomedex, but they're not exactly big Internet/blog/RSS/XML/open-source types (my wife has a blog, and they all have Gmail, though!).

They plan to spend the three nights/four days doing some other stuff—as will I, when I'm not at the conference. Perhaps other people going down are bringing guests who won't attend Gnomedex itself? If so, shall we organize some activities (Seattle Center, swimming, museums, shopping, family-friendly dinners, etc.) that they can do while we're all geeking out? Maybe some of the Vancouver attendees want to get together?

I'd appreciate some suggestions here for things to do. I'll post a similar request on the gnomedex online forums in case others want to make comments there.
