As luck would have it I got to visit Seattle a few weeks ago. I love Seattle. I don't think living there would be that great...but visiting is pretty cool.
I walked down to the Pier one afternoon I had a few hours to spare. The Pier is probably my favorite spot. They redid the old Starbuck's to make it look "prettier" or at least I remember it being much smaller the last time I was there 6 years ago. It's pretty sweet now.
Tulips were in bloom..and the market reminded me of the flower market in Amsterdam. the fish guys were out in full force and the fresh local fares were to be experienced. My only purchase from there was a Seattle Starbuck's cup. I know...cheesy. But one day you will have to see our city mugs as we have some SWEET cups. The only thing I want David to remember from our house in Basalt when he moves out is the Starbuck's cups.
All in all Seattle you are always on my list.
