Seattle in Abu Dhabi

Hello,

I'm living in AD for 3 years now and I'm planning to visit Seattle in May. Is here (in AD) anyone from there? If yes, I would appreciate for any info. Thank you in advance :). Maja

Seattle! Where you will staying ? In downtown ? Well May is perfect time for visit Seattle, you will really enjoy walk in the farmers market in downtown where the first Starbucks store it is, on weekend is usually busy but many stores are around pike place, you can walk down to the gum wall they cleaned one year ago but everyone started to put gum again, if you keep walking down that street you will be in the waterfront park where the aquarium is ( its kind of small for the price but if you wanna see at big octopus is there ) also there is the great wheel is $13 and is a perfect view of Seattle good for take pictures, for lunch you can enjoy crab pot the famous restaurant in Seattle where you can have s lot of seafood 😻 You have to visit the space needle the perfect time is at 5 or 6pm you can see the sunset and also the night lights of my Seattle ❤️ You also can take a Ferri ride is only $6 up and down to the islands (30 minutes away) the views from the ferri are the best I will probably take this at night only for the view, in the islands aren't much to do so you can be back in the same ferry :) you have to go also to the gas works park, walk to see the Fremont troll and in May is time to visit the Washington university for the cherry blossoms trees and are so pretty! So many people go to take pictures, also you can go outside the city to the snoqualmie falls :) well this are my favorites places around Seattle, if you are in shopping mood you can go to Bellevue you can take a bus from downtown Seattle and they have many fancy and big malls :) anyway hope you enjoy the visit of my city! Have fun
