Out Seattle Weekend-cation!

This last weekend we headed up to Seattle with a few of our friends for a Mariners vs. Yankees baseball game. It was so much fun to get a way for the weekend and breathe in the beautiful Seattle air. The Mariners ended up losing 2 to 5 but it was still a good time.




Matt and I stayed downtown at the Hotel Monaco which was absolutely wonderful because it was located just a few blocks away from Pike Place Market. We slept in until about 10:30 then strolled down to the Market for hot delicious Russian pastries and fresh fruit that we enjoyed on the boardwalk. This was one of those moments of complete Seattle bliss. I really do think that Seattle has soul healing abilities :) Later that morning we met up with our friends Pete and Genny and headed over to the west side of Seattle. We were feeling young at heart so we rented tandem bikes and road about 5 miles down the coast line and it was AMAZING! For any of you who are considering a visit to Seattle I would totally recommend this. It was so much fun and it was absolutely breath taking. After our bike ride we treated ourselves to some delicious ice cream cones and fish and chip's - life just doesn't get better than that :)




I LOVE SEATTLE!!!
