Anyone have a trip report from Seattle?
I can't believe no one mentioned the underground tour. It was really cool. http://www.undergroundtour.com/

Also the flying fish market. http://www.pikeplacefish.com/

I haven't been there in over 10 years, but those were great activities then.

If you are ever in Seattle, DO NOT skip Bamboo Garden, it's the most awesomest kosher vegetarian chinese restaurant I've ever been to,

By no means am I a vegetarian, but their food is to die for.... I often have cravings for it, no joke... I wish there was a place like that in New York,

here is a picture I snapped of my dinner there, hmmmm   :P

We will be staying in Seattle in late October with two kids - a 20 month old and a 3.5 year old. Any suggestions on where to stay? If it helps, I'm Kimpton Inner Circle and Starwood Gold. Looking for something affordable though...Thanks in advance!

IMHO, downtown is the most central location. All the hotels and shops are in walking distance of each other, be warned parking can be pricey depending on the street you park on and the shul in Seward Park is about a 15-20 min ride.
