The lady and I took an impromptu trip to Seattle to celebrate our babymoon... aka, last vacation we'll take for a while/ever with just the two of us. Some highlights include a hotel with a great view of downtown, the unexpectedly chill/amazing Fremont neighborhood (and its guardian Troll), and a hike at the Mount Rainier National Park.
For the most part, Seattle is the kind of town that most people don't visit without another reason to be in the area. I'd like to recommend to anyone who has a chance that Seattle is a great trip to make during the summer for no reason at all. Food (especially seafood), culture (music and pop culture museum #hendrix #nirvana), nature (Mount Rainier is gorgeous!), great bus system to get around with sans car... do it!!!
