Emerald City Folks...

Black Diamond

So myself, the Mrs. and our 3 devilish children (10 and under) are going to have the pleasure of spending 48 hours in your fine city (first time for all of us) at the end of this month... Yay!!!

So looking for ideas on what to do and where to eat while taking it all in

We got tix for the Mariners on the 27th (Ichiro bobble head night, woo hoo) but are free and open the rest!

You kind help would be appreciated...

Go to Pike Place Market and go check out the gum wall, kids and adults love it.

search "gum wall seattle" and you want to go to the Alibi Room

48 hours is totally not enough time to spend here!
Really with that little time, I'd go to pike Place market, eat some of those 'nummy donuts (the kids will like watching the machine make them), and then go down to the waterfront and check out the aquarium or the shops around there. Too bad you're not gonna be here this weekend, The Blue Angels are here for Seafair!
