PJ fan first time in Seattle
So, I'm finally going to be in Seattle for the first time this upcoming September. Any suggestions on things to do as a PJ fan visiting the city for the first time?

Not very PJ related but the drive to Levenworth (sp?…germantown) is astounding. Starts out green and ends white. Waterfalls everywhere. The Hotel shot from Twin Peaks…I forget the name, but that too is stunning. Make sure to do the little walk down to the bottom of the waterfall.
Ive been twice, back again this October. PJ, and all the music from Seattle, is the reason I felt that I had to go. Two of the best trips I have ever taken. I can't wait to get back there.
Theres this great coffee shop thats right in Freemont. Just grab a cup, sit on the porch and feel it. Its everywhere.
If you're there on a Saturday, Pike Place Market is quite the experience. Lots of awesome little vendors, food, crafts, all out madness! The original Starbucks is right there too (the line is insane!). It's also right next to The Showbox and down the street from Benaroya Hall if you're looking for Pearl Jam nostalgia. The gross gum wall is still there too I believe. More a novelty than anything else. And obviously the PJ posters at SEA-TAC. That was awesome to see. Took lots of pictures.
Enjoy no matter what you do!
As many breweries as possible (if you like beer, of course: I have a soft spot for Pyramid and the West Seattle Brewing Co.)
Ballard and Fremont
Gasworks Park
Space Needle/what used to be EMP/Chihuly Glass Museum/Monorail/Westlake
West Seattle/Alki (for a more relaxed, neighbourhood vibe as well as Easy Street Records)
Further north: Bellingham/Fairhaven, WA
If the roads are still open in September, check out Sunrise and Paradise, either side of Mount Rainier.
