Seattle is such a green place. From the moment we came in, flying over downtown, to leaving we were surrounded by green trees. The air is a bit cooler and everything feels so pristine. In some respects, it feels a little like Canada in the sense that it feels so unadulterated. The people seem more relaxed and generally nicer up there too.

After a few days of non-stop eating we decided to go to see some of Seattle’s nature. Snoqualmie falls was really pretty. There were a handful of hiking trails at various points in the region. Seattle definitely lived up to it’s beautiful natural reputation!

Downstream it powers an electric power plant that harnesses the power of the currents. It was a little weird to see such natural beauty interrupted with power lines and a plant.
