Seattle is indeed a happening place... everywhere is bustling full of activities, from Pike's Place Market to Seattle Waterfront!
There are so many different types of fresh seafood and produce in Pike Place Market. Definitely not a common sight in Mountain Home!
We headed straight for the famous Pike Place Fish Co. where the FISH! Philosophy originated. The fishmongers are known around the world for throwing and catching large slippery fish, to the delight of their customers. It is one of the many ways they play to lighten the atmosphere and create an environment that nurtures innovation. And yes, we did see some fishes 'fly' while we were there!
Oh the first Starbucks was also started HERE! See the original logo of the fat mermaid!
We chanced upon this pastry shop that sell Char Siew Bun (they called it as 'Hum Bao', sounds like crybaby in Cantonese). Quite yummy though :)
Seattle Aquarium
Its quite a nice place to bring the kids for a visit. Kaeden enjoyed the Crashing Waves Exhibit and Touch Pool. Heehee, I happened to have a prolonged craving for Stingray hence, got alittle distracted when I saw one swimming in the tank... looked delicious especially topped with sambal *slurp*
Argosy Harbor Cruise
We took a 1 hour+ cruise around Seattle Harbor which departed from Pier 55. The weather was really nice, not too hot or too cold, till I fell asleep *oops*
