When I first time approached Seattle from the Alaskan highway it felt like if I was entering Gotham City. The grey sky above the tall skyscrapers in the horizont sort of tell you to "enter on your own responsebility". Once you have entered Seattle will welcome you with a warm embrace. This is not a Los Angeles, neither is it New York. This is an ancient pearl with mysteries and hidden places that need to be explored. The many streetmusicians will make sure to provide you with a city-soundtrack, reflecting the long history of rock'n'roll, which lay within the streets of seattle. You can sense the battle between indie-labels advocating for independency within musicprductions and the major hype that came with this wave of music-expression in the 90's.
Another sense being stimulated on the streets is not only your ears, but also your eyes and nose. The smell of coffie and cake will find you somehow! If you can't resist, I'll recommend you to enter the skyscraper "Columbia Tower" and then reach for the Starbucks Coffie on 45th floor. They serve decent coffie and the view is amazing.
I'll update some more from Seattle, because it is certainly a city to explore.
