Weekend in Seattle


Spring Break !! Two weeks of no school, no homework, no waking up early, YOOHOO! :D
We also had one weekend with everyone at  home so we thought we do something special. We decided to go on a road trip and Seattle sounds like fun place to spend the weekend. The weather maybe the same as Vancouver (wet and cold)  but at least it'll be a different scene and lots of new things to see.

 We have a list of places we wanted to visit and checked out in Seattle . One of them is Jollibee (McDonald version of the Philippines) at South Centre Mall in Tukwila. We don't have it in Vancouver and the kids loved their chicken and burger steak meals so we gotta have that for sure. 

Our next stop: The Pike Place Market. We took a good ten minutes to find a parking spot. Of course, it was a Sunday! and the place just was soo busy. We finally found a place to park at the far end of the market and just so happened also right in front of the first Starbuck Store. ;) Cool!
We loved walking around the Public Market where they sell fresh produce, seafoods and crafts by local artisans. You can also find a variety of unique shops and restaurants inside. A perfect place to go on  Sunday with family.

Well, I think the trip Seattle won't be complete without visiting the Space Needle. We all went up to their observation deck 520 feet high. It was  Awesome!








Of course, going and back we stopped by the outlet and did some shopping. .I can't explain why but nobody remembered to take pictures while shopping. hahaha.We were so engrossed with it, we forgot to bring out the camera. Yes, we did spend some but it was all worth it. We had so much fun and it was one great family bonding time.
