Okay, so I’ve been meaning to get out and explore Seattle more, especially now that it’s springtime. The weather’s been pretty nice, a little rain here and there, but hey, it’s Seattle, right? So I figured, “Let’s do this!” I started planning my little adventure.
Getting Started
First thing I did was grab my phone and searched for the best place to visit in Seattle,WA . I mean, that’s the obvious first step, isn’t it? I got many suggestion for a place to go, I saw some pictures, read some reviews – you know, the usual. I wanted something outdoorsy, something that screams “spring.”
My Exploration Begins
I woke up early(ish) – around 9 am. I am not exactly a morning person. Grabbed a quick coffee and a bagel, threw on a light jacket (because, Seattle), and headed out. Then I started to think, what should I do?
I made some list of things that i want to try:
- Check out some garden.
- Go to a park, maybe have a picnic.
- Just walk around and see some flowers.
Sounds simple enough, yeah?
The Journey Itself
I drove, mostly because I wanted the freedom to hop around. Parking was a bit of a pain, ngl, but I managed. Once I got to the main areas I wanted to explore, it was pretty easy to get around on foot.
First, I hit up a local garden, I remember the flowers were amazing! So many colors, and everything smelled so fresh. I walked around, taking way too many pictures – my phone’s storage is probably crying right now. But seriously, it was beautiful. I even saw some bees buzzing around, doing their thing. It felt like a proper spring day.
After the garden, I found a nice little park nearby. I had packed a simple lunch – a sandwich, some fruit, and a juice box (don’t judge, they’re tasty!). I found a bench with a decent view, sat down, and just enjoyed the vibe. People were walking their dogs, kids were playing, and there was even a guy playing a guitar nearby. It was all super chill.
Wrapping Up
I spent a few more hours just wandering around, checking out some other smaller parks and green spaces. I even stumbled upon a little hidden gem – a tiny little pocket park with a cute fountain. By late afternoon, I was pretty tired, but in a good way. It felt good to be outside, enjoying the fresh air and the spring scenery.
So yeah, that was my little “spring in Seattle” adventure. Nothing super crazy, but it was exactly what I needed. It was a good reminder to get out and explore more, even if it’s just in my own city. Definitely planning on doing more of these little day trips. Maybe next time, I’ll try a different part of the city. We’ll see!
