Of course I made her take me to the Public Market, especially since last time I was there in 2014 she wouldn't. 

Seattle-Alki-Beach-Space-Needle-Pike-Place-Public-Market-Photography__MG_2058 Seattle-Alki-Beach-Space-Needle-Pike-Place-Public-Market-Photography__MG_2059 I loved the flowers, all the flowers. If I lived in Seattle I would buy fresh flowers every week.

We stumbled upon the cutest little wine and cheese shop in the Public Market with a beautiful view and delicious offerings. Northwest Tastings was a great place to sip and bite while resting and regrouping for the next adventure. I definitely recommend hitting this spot if you find yourself at the Market, it's worth the hunt.

Like I said the view is pretty magical.

The boom of Seattle is hard not to notice. When I visited back in 2014 the sky was filled with construction cranes and in 2018 there were just as many if not more.

I love old phone booths. I try and snap a picture any time I see them. I'm pretty nostalgic and there is something about the history of communication evolution I find important. Seattle has bunch!

The Space Needle was pricy but I thought well worth it. We stayed for a few hours, the beer was more than at a Chicago sporting event however. The views were spectacular. Sunset was glorious.

We also traveled out to ALKI beach. Of course I had to hit the beach.

West Seattle Brewing Company was an awesome spot to sit and soak up the beautiful late summer vibes across from the beach.
