Yesterday, Troy & I met his parents over in Seattle! It was probably one of my best trips across the Puget Sound yet. We started our adventure with a Fraiche Cup coffee and a ferry ride from Bremerton to downtown Seattle. We took some shots on the ferry & as we approached the city! It was the best day for pictures. The clouds looked so defined and illuminated – just beautiful! Aren’t Troy’s pictures breathtaking?
When we made it across the sound, we went on the Underground tour of Seattle. The city was originally built on muddy ground because it was so close to the sea level. After a fire wiped out the city, a new and improved Seattle was built after filling in one story of dirt, to raise up the city. 20 blocks of Seattle still has walkways & the first story of buildings underground. Does that sound confusing? Read more history about the city on the Underground Tour website.
Anxiously awaiting the tour. Behind me, a touring couple wearing matching jean jackets, red shirts and jeans. I thought they were cute:)
Below, a peek from under the city! Beautiful glass skylights from the city’s rebirth.
After the Underground Tour, we had the itch to see Seattle from a bird’s eye view. We took the elevators in the Columbia building up to the 73rd building to take a look! The Columbia building is twice the size of the space needle & only costs $3 dollars to ride to the top! What a deal! I highly recommend it if you are visiting the Emerald city!
After all of our touring, it was time for a little shopping therapy! Haha. We found a fun vintage shop below with a mixture of old and new. Great hats, purses and shoes!
We also stopped at anthropologie where I found a couple of options for my bridesmaid dresses. Which one are you rooting for?
And finally, I ended our trip feeling like Cinderella. I found my bride shoes! How exciting! I love Seattle for it’s incredible finds!
