We didn't have a ton of time up there so we didn't do a lot but here are some of the highlights...
We headed to the Space Needle and had dinner at the top. It takes an hour to make a full rotation so we could see an ariel view of the city and the sound while we ate. It was really fun.
I don't even remember what kind of a car this is but Jared was totally jealous of the owner. I made him stand by it like he owned it but he got all nervous and didn't want to touch it or look weird. I thought that was funny that he cared so much.
This picture's kind of lame but we went on the underground tour. My dad said it's the dumbest thing ever but we actually really liked it. It gave a history of how Seattle was built and it's interesting to know that the streets and sidewalks you're walking on are on top of old streets. My grandpa said "it's nice if you like walking around in basements." I think he might not have like the tour much either.
Ohhhh, yumm yumm yummmmm!! This alone makes me want to live on the West Coast!
It's hard to see but there is a flying salmon in this picture. This is the famous fish market that we see on movies a lot. We stood around waiting for someone to buy a fish just for this picture.
Here's Jared debating whether it's worth $200 to pack some fresh fish home. We didn't come home with any :(
The famous sign. They were doing construction so we didn't get to touch the lucky pig.
This was really the highlight of our trip. Jared and I LOVE trying new foods and when a restaurant has great atmosphere along with yummy food we feel like we are the luckiest people in the world. This was a Moroccan restaurant we found in a newspaper we picked up off the ferry. They had 5 courses and they were all delicious.
They first washed our hand at the table then gave us a huge towel we kept throughout our meal (I suppose because a lot of the food was eaten by hand). There was a belly dancer, we sat on the floor, and this is our 3rd course. It was some crazy ground chicken filled filo dough piled high with powdered sugar and cinnamon. It was unique and delicious!
You can see it was not an easy thing to eat. This is why we had huge towels instead of normal sized napkins.
We also took a ferry across puget sound and got a couples massage. We ate some sushi, watched a movie, read some books, and hung out in a lot of coffee shops using their wifi and sipping herbal tea. Well, maybe I did those things while Jared was in conferences for a couple days.
Our trip was wrapped up in the airport watching the superbowl at Sbarros eating leftover cheesecake.
