In May 2013 my brothers came to Vancouver for a visit. As part of that visit we took a wee trip down to Seattle. Just wandering around downtown Seattle was nice which had a mixture of older and newer buildings. This is quite a contrast compared to Vancouver where the vast majority of buildings in downtown are new glass towers. I had only being in Vancouver for 5 months but was already craving some older architecture!:P On the newer building front, the Space Needle lit up at night was pretty beautiful.

We also took a little wander over to Freemont which had a few random things like a trolls statue under a bridges!
Other star attractions in Seattle included the Pike Place Market (famous for fish throwing), the first ever Starbucks store, The Pike brew pub, the Cheescake Factory and the EMP museum (which I didn’t get to myself but my brothers went and had a great time).
