🚶 Step 2 — From Colman Dock to Twisted JJ (two options):
Option A — Walk + Light Rail (~20 min total): From the ferry terminal, walk 10 minutes north on Alaskan Way to Pioneer Square Station, board the 1 Line southbound one stop to International District/Chinatown Station, then walk west on Jackson St (~5 min).
