Going at the end of the month for the O's series (and my last stadium!).

 

Post any/all recommendations here.

I was there a few weeks before 9/11, so it's been awhile.

 

Stating the obvious here -- but Pike Place is a must. A bit touristy, but I'd get to the original Starbucks as well.

 

I ate at Wild Ginger.

 

Great city.

Will they let me try to catch one of the big fish?  I really want to do that.

I did this in 2006 with my Scout troop so it may not be there anymore but across the bay there was this Indian tribal dinner thing where they served salmon and all kinda of other food as well as entertainment like dancing, storytelling, etc. I don't remember everything that happened but it was a cool experience.

Haha I was just too young to remember. We took a ferry over which was kind of cool because it have you a nice view of the Seattle skyline if you're in to that sort of thing.

Bainbridge Island?

 

I forgot to include that on my initial list, that was fun.

Anyone got info on any mass transit available?  I may have to stay pretty far from downtown -- hotels in this town are absurd.

One more thing I thought of -- I did Underground Seattle when I was there, that was neat if you're into history type stuff.
