Yesterday, I went to the annual Bite of Seattle at the Seattle Center for the first time in years! While it's traditionally a fun time (bands, beer gardens, FOOD!) I usually can't stand the crowds so I stopped going for a while. But yesterday was one of those great summer days in Seattle and I really wanted to be outside enjoying it. As per usual, parking was difficult (and expensive!) around the Seattle Center. Again, with the bus theme, this is a perfect example of why you should take the bus. We didn't take the bus and it cost us $10 to park and about a half hour of frustration while looking for parking! Once inside the Seattle Center grounds, there were huge lines to get anything - whether it was food booths, beer gardens, bathrooms, or events. The good part is, that everywhere you are, there is lots of music and tons of great people watching. Kids playing in the Fountain. People dancing in the sun. My best tips for the day: pack your patience, wear sunscreen, keep your cash and ID handy, and bring your own water! It was about 80 degrees yesterday which is pretty hot for Seattle. If you haven't experienced it, you should do it! It's free admission. There is one more day of i
t this weekend!
