Farmgirl In: Seattle

Not yet though.  I will be making a voyage to Seattle, for a work training, in March.

{Sidenote....for all my trips/travels from now on, I will be posting them as 'Farmgirl In:....'.  I thought that would suit me well.  Because this farmgirl will definitely be feeling misplaced wherever she goes.  Well, except for maybe to Colorado or Wyoming or South Dakota.....}


Here's my dilemma.....I have never been to Seattle before.  {For some reason, I just really want to go there, and this opportunity with work is great!}

Plus, I will be going to Seattle all by myself.  No co-worker this time like all my work trips in the past.  Just me, myself, and I.

So, I have no idea what to do.

I saw that the lovely Farmgirl Paints has been there, and sent an email her way asking for suggestions of things to do.

I will be staying in Downtown Seattle.  So I had already planned on visiting Pikes Market.

I would love suggestions of things to do that are on the cheap/free side {if you can find that in Seattle!}.  Due to how much a weekend flight costs, I will have 2.5 days after the training to do as I please.  This also means that I will be experiencing my first red-eye flight.  Wait....maybe my flight back from Hawaii to Iowa via Arizona was a red-eye, since it too was a night flight.

Anyway, I'd love some suggestions, ideas, tips, cruise ideas, etc.

After reading Becky's email, I will most definitely be preparing myself for some huge culture shock.Not so sure about that.

Or if you are feeling adventurous, feel free to join me on this trip!

Bill's sister, Denise, is there. You could look her up for some help with the culture shock.

Wear layers. The underground tour is fun! I don't remember what street it's on, but it's near Pike Place. Jealous!
