#72 Seattle Trip

Visited the Space needle the first day in Seattle. While it rained earlier, the weather that day was nice and breezy. Atop the space needle we saw spectacular views of the city with both day and night views.


Stayed at the exquisite Pan Pacific hotel, which was walking distance to the Space Needle.


The second day we did a food tour of Pike Place Market through Savor Seattle Food Tours. It was a perfect day, nice and sunny without a trace of the typical rainy Seattle weather. Tasted savory piroshky pastries and award winning clam chowder. My favorite tastings on the food tour were the smoked salmon and cherry-inspired treats.


After the food tour, we drove to Vancouver and walked around the city and had delicious Korean food for dinner. We tasted kimchee for the first time. The following day we went to the spacious Stanley park and even stopped by the Aquarium before heading back to Seattle.


On the last night in Seattle we watched a ballgame at Safeco Field. Munched on kettle corn and ice cold lemonade as we watched the Mariners defeat the Orioles.

Overall Seattle was a great trip! I'd love to visit the city again...next time with baby on board!
