I might visit soon.

Anything worthwhile there?

Has the shooting stopped?

My son was there on holiday a few days ago, and absolutely loved it. Portland too...

Scenery, wineries and eating at restaurants seemed to be the go...
Nurse, where the fuck's my cardigan?
And my gin!

One of my favorite cities! :awesome:

Three places I've been to that I really enjoyed:

Pike's Place Market
Science Fiction Museum
Mt. Rainier

But Seattle is wonderful everywhere.

Bring a raincoat and umbrella. Sometimes it's too warm for rain coats.

Said Daemon, who's sorry too, but y'see we didn't have no choice
And our hands they are many and we'd be of one voice
We've come all the way from Wigan to get up and state
Our case for survival before it's too late

Turn stone to bread right away...

Thank y'all.

I believe they can make a decent cup of coffee, any recommendations?

The original Starbucks is in Pike's Place.

That's all I can say though, because I despise coffee as one of the world's great evils.

Anywhere but Starbucks.

Missed this momentous event by two weeks.

Cool city though.
