So here's 20 things I've come to realize while on my trip!
1. There's NO parachutes for you on the plane! (yes I'm being serious!)
2. I had no idea all planes weren't 3 rows wide!
3. 2 rows are a little ummm... close...
4. Flying through the clouds are amazing!
5. I'm glad I don't have to use Public transportation every day!
6. NEVER wear any sort of heel while sight seeing in Seattle!
7. You will be scrubbing the black off your feet for days if you walk bare feet for 10 mins on the streets of Seattle, YUCK!!
8. Seattle has so many fun things to do for any age!
9. Maybe not such a great idea to try out some Mexican food from a place you don't know!
10. I've encountered the best seafood I've ever had!
11. I'm forever going to be craving me some Seattle seafood!
12. The shopping is amazing there!
13. It's truly a great place to window shop!
14. I really think I'll have a scheduled foot massage if I ever go back there, I've never walked to much!
15. People at the crosswalks weren't that friendly, nobody smiles there!
16. It really is gloomy and rainy there!
17. Two girls walking the down town streets at night is probably not such a great idea!
18. There really is a coffee shop in every corner!
19. Pikes Market is the coolest thing EVER!
20. I missed my family like crazy!

waiting for the bus!
our Hotel, it was so beautiful!
our Hotel, it was so beautiful!
one of the stands @ Pikes Market, how would you like to eat all that fresh fruit everyday??? The life...
one the Ferry ride back to Seattle, man it got cold!
Nothing like a self portrait to realize you've got some major roots going on! Seriously why didn't I see this before I left???
Relaxing waiting for our plane!
So first and for most, huge shout out to Collected Memories for sending me on this awesome trip! Thanks Eric your the best!!
We had such a fun, exhausting time! We left our houses @ 5am Friday morning, left Boise @ 7am, arrived in Seattle @7:20 am, loved gaining that hour! We thought we'd be adventurous and try the bus system. This little project was fully on Melanie, I can seriously hardly read a map, so all the credit goes to her for finding our way in the BIG city! 1 city bus, 1 Monorail ride and about a 4/5 block walk later we arrived at our Hotel, checked our bags and then we were off to the Fabric show! So we then back tracked to basically where the Monorailed dropped us off at to the Seattle Center/ Space Needle. For the next 8ish hours we stared at fabric, sounds boring but it was actually fun! After the show we went back to our hotel to change and got ready to head down town to see the sights! This is where I pulled the most stupid thing ever, I wore heels... I seriously had stupid written on my forehead that night! We once again rode the monorail back to down town and just decided to walk towards the water, which seemed so close (everything does) but believe me my feet beg to differ! We made our way through Pikes Market, man I'd just die to have a place like that to buy the most beautiful bouquets of flowers any time I wanted for 5 bucks! Then we were off to catch the Ferry to Bainbridge Island, so fun and amazing to me that people really ride that every day to get to work and back home! By the way don't eat the Ferry Food, just saying... So after that we were trying to make our way back to our hotelish area cause it was getting mighty scary on the streets, kinda reminded me of Vegas, bums galore! To end the night we went to this Mexican food place that we had our eye on all day to check out, we thought it would be perfect for us cause they didn't close til 1:30am, no need to rush anywhere cause we'd for sure be able to eat there. Turns out the place was quite the happening party/bar, very surreal actually girls in tiny black dresses, the whole nine yards! If your wondering it definitely wasn't our scene BUT the food smelt soooo good... At this point I would have rather ate at Taco Bell over that place cause the food was so spicy neither one of us could eat out dinner. SERIOUSLY it burned our stomach and we are definitely not wimpy Mexican food eaters, we love us some Mexican food! The next day we were up bright and early off to the show we went for a bit then it was time to squeeze in some more sight seeing before we headed home! We hit the Seattle Aquarium and had some excellent sea food! What a great time!
