After spending so much time in the rural areas along the west coast, it was a bit of a shock to come into a city - but Seattle really was a cool city in which to spend the day. We tried to take the ferry out of Port Townsend to go up to Whidbey Island but they were sold out for the day, so we decided to head directly to Seattle instead. We ended up taking the ferry into the city out of Bainbridge Island. It was a cool perspective coming into a city from the water and it kind of blew my mind how much they utilize the Sound as a taxi to get people around the area. Both Will and I kind of fell in love with this area and we really enjoyed the city of Seattle. Of course we went to Pikes Market and we saw them slinging fish, we hugged the huge pig, we checked out the gum wall, and we ate a lovely seafood dinner at a restaurant with a view of the harbor. That night we caught up with some old friends who live just outside of the city and Dylan relished in having some kids to play with for the night. They were kind enough to offer us a bed, laundry, showers and a lovely evening together.
