Seattle!





 Felix Surprised me with a weekend trip to Seattle for my birthday and man was it SOOO much fun.  We took the train from Portland to Seattle (what a cool way to travel) and spent 2 nights 3 days in Seattle.  The First day we were there we ate at this restaurant called Elliotts where we ate oysters, not my favorite but they were good.  Scarlett and I shared halibut and brussel sprouts (i'm pretty sure she ate more than her half though :).) and after we went to this homemade ice cream shop and had an ice cream cone.  We couldn't have planned it any better but we made it on the ferris wheel right at sunset! BEAUTIFUL!!  




 On Sunday we went to Pikes Place Market, which was super amazing and so fun! We spent the whole morning there!!! We ate A LOT ha ha but everything was so good! we had Mac and Cheese that was to DIE FOR,  homemade Greek yogurt (which has inspired me to make it myself and see if I can get it to taste as good)   After that we walked back down to the bay and went on a boat tour, also very fun and informative! the tour guide told us that in a 5 mile radius (half of which would be in the water) there are 130 Starbucks, just Starbucks this doesn't include the other coffee shops in the area.  CRAZY but Seattle certainly loves coffee.  After the tour we walked back up to Pikes Place Market and ate clam chowder (the best Clam Chowder I have ever had).  After a late lunch early dinner we just walked around and hung out. What a cool city Seattle is.






How awesome to buy your seafood basically right out of the water

 Our last day in Seattle we ended back up at Pike's place market and had some more of that greek yogurt (i'm obsessed) Also a trip to Seattle wouldn't be complete without going to the original Starbucks, and we came home with a cool coffee mug. We spent a majority of the morning on this cool dock.  Than we headed back to the train station to head home.


I fell in love with this city in just the short weekend we were there and I'm so excited that we live so close so we can go again! Over all I had the best BIRTHDAY TRIP EVER!
