We didn’t really know what to expect in Seattle so hadn’t planned any activities other than going up the space needle. We stumbled across an info center on harbor cruises and decided to hop on the next boat taking off since they were giving deals.I highly recommend doing one of the cruises (there are a few different ones to choose from) as you can see the whole Seattle skyline and it’s pretty cool. They also tell you about the different buildings and give a little history of them and the city.

Since I just got back from America I thought it might be a good time to share my trip to Washington and Oregon last year. I think I’ve mentioned before that my Mom is from Oregon, so all of her side of the family is still over that way, with my Aunt Uncle and cousins living close to Portland just over the border in Washington. My Nana was having surgery so I decided it was as good as time as any to visit my west coast family, with Adam coming along about a week later because he felt left out in England.
