Yup.

Downtown? Take a stroll down this tunnel. It begins/ends in Rainier Square and ends/begins in One/Two Union Square. Happy strolling. :)

There are also some little deli type eateries, a salon, and an art gallery, though I haven't taken advantage of any of them yet. All in all, this is a pretty spiffy way to get from 7th and Union to 4th and University without having to set foot outside - always a plus when it comes to dealing with Seattle's variable weather.

It still has that Seattle waterfront feel, but they're a lot more open seating areas outside to enjoy the scenery, the weather and your food. We love coming here and looking through all the shops, tasting the various food options available, looking at all the beautiful flowers that they're selling. And all the little gift ideas from all the vendors. Our favorite spot is to watch the seafood areas, throw fish around and chant while they do so. It's such a staple to see this in action when you're visiting Pike place market. Don't forget to look for all of the pigs in the market area. There's one that's hiding somewhere and then there's two that sit on the corner right in front of the fish market area. I always suggest going in hungry and just trying different foods from different areas because all the food there are a delicious. This small little area connects you down to the waterfront which has the aquarium. Beware of those stairs as they can get tiresome. But the view from the top of Pike place market down to the water is beautiful. There is not a spot that you cannot capture a beautiful site.

It's open to the public the 2nd Saturday of the month for limited hours and they offer two-one hour tours during this time. The entrance to the parking lot is a little hidden, but follow the signs and drive into the gate, there's quite a bit of space. There's porta potties on site near the parking lot. If you want to go to the 2nd floor you will have to climb some stairs, but those with mobility issues may still enjoy just taking a look from the bottom floor, there was a ramp to one of the entrances of the building. Other floors are closed to the public, but hopefully this will change one day. There is some stuff to look at if you come and just read the indoor signs, but I think the tour really pulls it all together. The person who lead our tour seemed like she put a lot of energy into her presentation and enjoyed volunteering there. I had no idea this place even existed and found the history really interesting and this is not a subject I am overly excited by. Its cool that this historic building has been saved, they are currently working on a plan to develop it further into a STEM center and they appreciate donations towards this cause. I believe it's also part of the Georgetown Haunted tour, which may be a reason to stop by on it's own. I hope to come back in a few years and see how they have developed it and check out the other floors. I'd love to see the historic bathroom.

At first glance, it's exactly what it sounds like: an entire alley wall covered in thousands upon thousands of pieces of chewed gum. It's colorful, bizarre, strangely artistic, and just a little disgusting. Some fun (or gross) facts: the wall contains an estimated millions of pieces of gum, and at one point crews removed more than a ton of gum from the bricks to prevent structural damage. Within days, visitors started rebuilding it. Apparently, Seattle collectively decided, "Nope, the gum stays."

But trust me when I say they transformed this space into something really beautiful. If you ever went to the old salad bar back in the day, you would never recognize it now. It looks great! My sister brought me here for my birthday dinner because I had my heart set on Italian, and she delivered. From the moment we sat down the service was wonderful. I genuinely felt taken care of the whole evening. For dinner I ordered the chicken fettuccine alfredo, which is my go-to at any Italian spot, and it did not disappoint. The portions are generous too, which I always appreciate. I also had a Greek salad and enjoyed every bite. My sister's only note was that the anchovies in her Caesar were pretty bold, but honestly, a traditional Caesar has anchovies in it. That's kind of the point! I ordered the tiramisu to go and I am so glad I did. It is my favorite Italian dessert and this one hit the spot. Yum!! Overall it was a really lovely birthday dinner.
