Travel: Seattle Eats
Seattle eats – where to eat in Seattle? I can tell you! Back in March we spent 3 days in the heart of this beautiful city and we had some of the best eats ever (oh, and one of the worst, too). We booked Queen Anne Flats and our second choice was Mad Flats. One of the reasons why choosing between the two was difficult is because of Little Uncle, the restaurant right below Mad Flats. It made Bon Appetit’s top 50 list in 2016.…

Travel: Pike Place Market Seattle
Pike Place Market Seattle – such an iconic place. If you’re in Seattle, you need to visit Pike Place, it’s simply awesome. Spectacular views, vintage shops and great eats (which I’ll share this weekend). Also, if you’re like me, it’s that sign that hangs outside the elevator on Grey’s Anatomy. Yes, I’m a Grey’s fan, aren’t you? Pike Place Market First, find the sign – you can’t miss it. It’s at the end of Pike Street, right where it meets Pike Place. Don’t be fooled,…

Travel: Seattle Aquarium

Seattle Aquarium It’s located down on the pier – be sure you get enough parking – we spent 2 hours here easily. This fish tank is huge! The awesome thing, they take in ‘stray’ animals. In this tank I found two fish with only one eye. No way those fish would survive in the wild, so they’re here at the…

Travel: Space Needle Seattle
The Space Needle Seattle has been an attraction I’ve wanted to visit ever since I watched The Jetson’s in 1987. Elroy is so cool. The neat part about visiting the Space Needle is when you walk in you walk up this huge ramp and it’s full of retro themed photos – even The Jetson’s! Basically, it’s like a little museum. We had City Passes, which means we visited twice – once during the day and again at night. If you’re only going to make one…

Seattle is amazing. The city is bright, cool and has a down-to-earth feel which puts you at ease. After visiting the MoPop we headed up to our flat in Queen Anne.

Check out the VRBO listing if you’re looking for a one of kind Seattle experience. We were about 3 blocks from an awesome Metro Market (like Whole Foods,…
