Seattle

Sunday afternoon we headed to Seattle. We stayed in the Fremont district at Hotel Hotel Hostel. This was a cute modern hostel on a side street with easy parking. Close walking distance to stores,  restaurants, and a grocery store.  Our receptionist was less than congenial and the hostel was located above a pub, but luckily the noise wasn’t even noticeable.

We quickly headed to Café Turko for dinner and it was delicious!! Great authentic Mediterranean food.

 

We went to Sirena Gelato for dessert.

The next morning mom and I walked around the Guggenheim Museum and Space Needle before meeting up with the girls at The London Plane for breakfast.

 

All of their food prep was out in the open on the ground floor. We headed upstairs to watch the process. It was art – beautiful fresh and healthy food.

I ran over to Elm Coffee Roasters to get a cup before heading to Pike Place Market.

We spent quite a few hours at the market enjoying the atmosphere, fish throwing, and musicians. We did some shopping downtown before heading on our way to the land of hockey, poutine, (no) mace, and kilometers.
