Food Scene

This is an iconic Seattle spot, with a fabulous view of Puget Sound. Get there early to get a table on the deck - but the views are fabulous from the dining room as well. Watch the water birds and the boats coming and going from lake Washington through the locks just around the corner.

Highly recommend this tour underground, through Seattle's sordid (and hilarious!) history. There is also an associated "Paranormal" tour that you can take, only at night. It's Seattle’s most unusual attraction, a humorous stroll through intriguing subterranean storefronts and sidewalks entombed when the city rebuilt on top of itself after the Great Fire of 1889.

The Seattle Aquarium is the ninth largest aquarium in the U.S. by attendance and among the top five paid visitor attractions in the Puget Sound region. The dome room and outdoor otter exhibits are my favorite :) It's also a wonderful waterfront neighborhood to explore!

Sightseeing

The locks that raise boats passing between the Lake Washington water level and the level of Puget Sound is a fascinating scene, and there's a fish ladder to see also! Don't miss the climbing wall around the corner near Taco Time!

The UW campus is beautiful and park-like with gorgeous architectural sights and - I especially recommend - visiting the Reading Room in Suzzallo Library, if you want to see a local version of the Great Hall in Harry Potter :)
