Seattle: The Emerald City
Last Updated: August 7, 2025
Yes, Seattle is really that green. I was lucky enough not to get caught in the rain. Please excuse some of these, as they were taken in 2012 with an iPhone 3GS. Eek! By the way, if you plan on seeing this gorgeous city, get the ORCA card and ride transit. It's easy.
Take the Coaster up, well…the coast, and if it's possible, don't do what I did and forget that Vancouver B.C. is just four hours away by train.
