When: May 25 // Weather: 60s // Real life: last day in Seattle
On our last day in Seattle, we really didn’t have much planned, but that works out fine in a laid back city. We found breakfast at The Wandering Goose (a peanut butter, banana, and honey biscuit sandwich? yes please.) then walked over to Volunteer Park. When we first walked in, I was all, “OK, yeah, nice park but nothing special,” but then it just got better and better. I mean, look at those bushes. I’ve never seen flowering bushes that big before. And they were everywhere. There’s also a conservatory with all kinds of cacti, and what say Pacific Northwest like cacti, am I right?!
Other cultural highlights included the Seattle Art Museum (wonderfully curated contemporary collection) and an adults-only underground tour.
The day also involved – are you ready for this? – lavender avocado vegan ice cream. And…AND. Beer-battered wild caught halibut tacos. I can confidently say my favorite part of Seattle was the food. We also ended up near the bar where Nirvana played its first gig (or one of its first, I don’t remember), but we were too full from all the food and tired from all the walking, so we just took a picture outside like the lame tourists we were. Still, Seattle did entertain us. I’m not in a rush to fly across the country again just for pretty flowers and good food, but I won’t be mad if life brings me back there again!
