Tolar and I are getting ready to travel to Seattle for an
extended weekend trip and I couldn’t be happier! I’ve never been to Seattle or
even Washington State, so I’m ready to check another state off my list and take
in all that Seattle has to offer, with the man I love by my side.

We are in desperate need of some time away just the two of
us. Yes, we do get to spend time together here in D.C., but so often my OCD
brain fills our time with cleaning and organizing the house and working on
projects that we don’t get a chance to just relax and enjoy each other’s
company (I definitely plan to work on that!) With our anniversary being at the
end of March, we didn’t get to take a nice summer vacation this year. Yes, we
did get to take an AWESOME anniversary trip to Hawaii in April, but we still
need a break after working all summer long.

Being OCD, I’m making a list of all of the places and
restaurants we need to check out while we are in Seattle. Of course, visiting
Pike’s Place Market, the Space Needle and taking a ferry to Puget Sound are on
the list, but we also love to check out the hidden gems when we travel to new
cities. Have you ever been to Seattle and do you have any travel tips/awesome
places to share? If so, leave a note in the comment section and I’ll add it to
my list. Thanks in advance for your fabulous suggestions!
go visit my nephews!!!!! I'll check in with my sister and send you some ideas =) But Redmond is a really nice area and if you want to see Sir Mix-A-Lot, he shows his cars at Redmond Town Center on Saturday mornings :)
ReplyDeleteI love that you know where Sir Mix-A-Lot is.
DeleteWhale watching! Get on a boat! Take a ferry! See the needle and then spend hours just talking to each other. :)
ReplyDeleteGreat ideas girl! We are definitely taking a ferry.
DeleteI found Kerry Park on TripAdvisor before I went - it's just a little park in a neighborhood but it has an amazing view of the skyline. (The one from the Frasier logo!) The walk to it has some big hills but you could easily drive there and park in the neighborhood.
ReplyDeleteAll great suggestions! And hey, the big hills can be our workout for the day.
DeleteI second whale watching! It's amazing! Also, the Seattle underground tour is really cool too!
ReplyDeleteOhhh, that sounds neat. Thanks for the suggestion.
