What an exciting day! It seems like we booked this trip so long ago, and it is FINALLY here.
So, we start our journey in Seattle....well flying out of Birmingham, 7:30am, layover in Baltimore, and then finally in Seattle!
In an effort to be frugal, and also, to explore our options and see the city, we decided to take the train to our hotel. Well, I am not sure this was the BEST option, with luggage in hand, but honestly, it was a great way to see the city. Lots of stops on the train, and we saw some interesting sights, that we otherwise would not have seen.
One problem, well, we are not really good at reading signs :) oops!

We did, however, pass Safeco field, where Seattle was playing the Yankees. Dang it, why did I not look that up. How fun, to see a Yankess game?! Oh well...guess we will have to go to NYC :)
Is this Starbucks Headquarters, or do they just have this cute coffee lady on the top, just for kicks!!! Of course....we are in the Coffee Capitol of the world!!!!!!!!
First stop....Space Needle. We did not actually go up in there....YET......but we had to stop for photos!!!

So, I love a city that relies heavily on public transportation. I am not sure why I love it so. I love buses, and trains, and taxis. I love it. And, this place....has a monorail! LOVE!
And, then, off to the market. The infamous Pike's Place Market! I have always thought this place looked so cool! And, indeed, in real life, it does. It's dirty. And very public. And I LOVE it!
