Seattle boasts some great scenery, nice people, and some very cool places to visit if you don’t mind driving all over the place to get for one cool thing to another. Public transportation here is spotty at best and lots of cool things are pretty far-flung. Do check out (in no particular order) the Woodland Park Zoo, the Asian Art Museum, Lakeview Cemetery, Green Lake, Seattle Center (including the Space Needle), Ballard (Hiram Chittendon) Locks, Archie McPhee, Twice Sold Tales, Fremont Troll, Carkeek Park.
