I would describe Seattle as the child of San Francisco and London. Why? Well they have similarities, but don't believe for a second that Seattle is identical to those two cities. Seattle is its own city and one that I highly recommend visiting.
One of the first things I did was attend a Seattle Sounders game and boy, was I surprised. The whole city turned into a ghost town while the game was going on. I expected there to be a good amount of people since it was at the CenturyLink stadium, but I was not expecting that many people to attend a MLS game.
The next two days involved exploring the city. I went to Pike Place Market, to the Space Needle, found an amazing sushi restaurant (Umi Sake House), and walked up and down many hills.
