While staying in North Bend, Ann and I took a quick little trip over to Snoqualmie to check out Snoqualmie Falls. It is a 270-foot waterfall with easily accessible views from two viewing platforms. Unfortunately, while we were visiting, the hiking trail to the base of the falls was closed. Also there seemed to be some kind of construction going on just upstream of the falls. So there really wasn't much for us to do other than snap a few shots, check out the gift shop, eat our lunch and go. This is not to say it's not worth going, just don't plan a whole day around your visit. It's more like a stop on the way to do something else.
Since we had some extra time to spare, we decided to walk around the cute little downtown and check out the shops, then poked around a bit at the Northwest Railway Museum. I'm not any kind of a train fanatic (and this was about two and a half years ago), so all I can say is... there were some neat trains there. I'm sure it's some place my nephew would have really enjoyed.
