A Spectacular Day at the Seattle Center

  1. A Spectacular Day at the Seattle Center Suzanne Stavert 15:26

This is a fun, informative episode. It came about because two weeks ago, I did a road trip episode called Our Epic Road Trip in Arizona. In it, I talked a lot about what we did specifically and gave you the details of where we stayed and what activities we enjoyed. Sharing this itinerary was so successful and well-received that I thought I’d do one more.

Spending time in such a fabulous city like Seattle is always a fun experience. Several years ago, I shared a blog post on my blog, Adventures of Empty Nesters, titled A Girls’ Trip Itinerary in Seattle. It has become one of my most popular posts, sparking the desire to create another satisfying itinerary. Interestingly, this time, the adventure was shared by three men and me. This recent visit is still fresh in my mind, and I’m thrilled to share it with you. The best part? The entire day’s itinerary is within a short walking distance, offering unique experiences at every turn, making it an easy and fun day of exploration.

The episode offers some great history about the Seattle Center and some excellent logistical tips, like starting your day early and parking in the lot adjacent to the Space Needle.

Seattle offers so much! Here is the link to The Girls Trip Itinerary. All of these suggestions can be combined with other activities. 

Check out my other episodes featuring other destinations like Whidbey and Camano Islands, and the Skagit Valley, which are only a short drive from downtown Seattle.
