One of my favourite cities on this road trip was Seattle. It's such a modern city with so much to do; I feel like it is a little bit underrated! We visited Pike Place Market, it has a lot of fresh produce and fish, so much fish. A few of the stalls had samples of things like preserves and jerky, and 'donut peaches' which I'd never come across before.

If you want a really beautiful view of the city, head to Kerry Park in Queen Anne. Whether it's during the day or at sunset, you get a great view of the Seattle skyline, and it's just a really relaxing place to hang out.

Another spot that will give you a great view of the Seattle skyline is Gas Works Park. We were very lucky and had the loveliest weather when we headed over there, it was really nice to just relax in the sunshine. I feel like when I only spend 2-3 nights in a city, I am constantly rushing to see as much as I can, but it's important to take some time to just have a break and enjoy some downtime. If you are up for some drinks, head over to Capitol Hill, there're quite a few bars and restaurants. We went to Von Trapp's which has since changed it's name to Rhein Haus (personally, I think the former is so much better!), and after that, we went bowling at a bar/bowling alley called Garage, which I highly recommend as well.
