Seattle Trip - Winter Break

Before Evangeline turns one, we took a quick trip to Seattle over the kid's Winter Break. Back in the day, I would map out the best restaurants to try and go on my foodie trek. Since kids came into the picture (almost seven years ago!!!), vacations are more tiring than staying at home. I went into this vacation without much of an agenda at all. The two main landmarks I wanted everyone to check out was Public Market and the Space Needle. We went to 1/2 of those places. The Space Needle was closed due to construction during our time there, lame! Instead, we spent half the day at a children's museum. At least the kids had a blast...


Judging by the way we're dressed, it's much colder in Seattle


Grubbing at the hotel lounge


First stop!

Had to find the gum wall 


Had to take a tourist-y picture here


I wonder how fresh their seafood tastes

.... and their fruit 


I wish our supermarket was this colorful


Stopping to check out the flowers

Stopped by the first Starbucks 


Signs are important


Yup, we're total tourists


Beautiful Seattle backdrop

Where are we?

Monorail robot (or something)

 Mom made them take a picture in front of this sign

 
Can't go to Seattle without eating some chow-dah

Goodbye Seattle

One thing I learned while in Seattle is that people are not friendly at all. Hello "Seattle Freeze" (not talking about the weather here). We survived with three kids and no car. If that's not a victory, I don't know what is!
