Seattle is known for its delicious brews, but Espresso Vivace Roasteria offers something much different than the Starbucks and Seattle´s Best chains found throughout the city. Opened in 1988 and inspired by Northern Italian espresso, Espresso Vivace creates their drinks with the motto "una bella tazza di caffe"–a beautiful cup of coffee.

Take a family-friendly three-mile hike, although you may also attempt to bike the recreation trail, to one of the most awe-inspiring sights in Washington State, Twin Falls. Twin Falls Trail will take you to the impressive 150-foot cascading waterfall, although you should also explore the beautiful forest as you make your way there.

Visit the birthplace of modern Seattle at the Pioneer Square District. This area served as the city´s first neighborhood and urban center, and is currently protected as a historical district with several preserved buildings and homes from the Victorian era and earlier. Visit some of the local shops and art galleries as well, when you are in the area.
