Seattle trip

Richard and I took a day trip to Seattle to celebrate our 2 year anniversary. The past two years have gone by fast, I can't believe we've been in Washington for almost 2 years now too! Instead of giving each other gifts for our anniversary's, we like to travel or experience something new together. Last year we went to the Oregon coast and we decided to go see Seattle this year. It turned out to be a rainy day in Seattle (what's new) but we still had a lot of fun seeing the city. It reminded us of a mix between San Francisco and Portland.



We drove past the space needle, it actually wasn't that tall but still neat to see.

After we stopped by the Bellevue mall (where I got my birthday present from Richard, a new Vera Bradley purse!) we were about to go across Mercer island to go to downtown Seattle and found that the freeways were all blocked off. There happened to be a Blue Angels show going on along the lake so we parked and watched for a little bit. It was unexpected but really cool and really loud!

Once we got downtown, we parked and walked through Pike Place market and along the water then got seafood for dinner. It was a fun day!
