The Fun Stuff
Much to do in Seattle and only two full days.
August 2nd
Why do people go to Seattle? To eat Cuban food of course! We arrive in Seattle at 6:45 p.m. and by 8:00 that is what we hope to be eating at Paseo's. I hope their food is better than their web site which consist of a copy of the menu and a links to other websites. But hey, if the food is good isn't that all you need.
Planes, Trains, automobiles, and boats. August 3rd.
San Juan Island day trip Leaves Seattle at 7:45 a.m. for a twelve hour tour. Sounds like a Gilliagan's island thing to me.
August 3rd. Pike Market and Pioneer Square
A walking and tasting tour of the market.
No, Pioneer Square is not square.
