Seattle mini road trip

Hello,

My boyfriend and I are taking a mini road trip this weekend stopping in Seattle, Vancouver, and Oregon. I was hoping someone could suggest the "must see" things to do while we are in Seattle. We will be there for such a short amount of time I want to make sure we get the best of it.

Thank you

What are your interests? History? Art? Music? Food? Shopping? Hikes? Bikes? Night clubs? Strip clubs? Remember, we don't know you and what we like may be what you hate.

Here’s three must-do’s for me:
1. Pike Place Market and the Seattle waterfront
2. Bill Speidel’s Underground Tour
3. Ferry out to Bainbridge Island in the evening and see the Seattle skyline lit on the return trip
There’s thousands of things to do and see in Seattle and the surrounding area, but these are my favorites. Have fun.

Open any guide book from a local library on Seattle and usually they have a "top ten" things to do listed on like page 1. It's hard for strangers to plan your vacation when we don't know you and don't know what your interests are. Seattle is a diverse, fun city with lots to see and do - help us to help you narrow it down.

One good thing to do is just walk around Capitol Hill for awhile and go to Volunteer Park, where the Seattle Asian Art Museum is. If it's a clear day, the Space Needle is a possibility. A ferry to Bainbridge Island is a good idea.

Lived in Seattle for a decade. Take the ferry to Bainbridge have a quaint late lunch after visiting Pikes Place Market, then take ferry back and look at the skyline at sunset. Then head over to Coffee Bar and plan oput the next day
Cheers
