WALKING: Downtown Seattle, Washington - Waterfront

"Seattle’s waterfront is a glorious open-air promenade with a day’s worth of activities for all ages. Anchoring the boardwalk is the Seattle Aquarium (1483 Alaskan Way Pier 59), an iconic institution where you can watch its adorable sea otters frolic and float on their backs. After lunch at another Seattle institution, Ivar’s Acres of Clams (1001 Alaskan Way) on Pier 54, climb into a gondola on The Seattle Great Wheel (1301 Alaskan Way) and rise 175 feet above the earth for views of the sparkling Sound and Seattle skyline. Exit the wheel and step into Miner’s Landing (Pier 57), a Gold Rush–era building with a carousel, an arcade, shops, and restaurants. A visit to the waterfront isn’t complete without a stop into Ye Olde Curiosity Shop (1001 Alaskan Way), home since 1899 to the macabre and kitschy, from skull-themed drinkware to replica shrunken heads. Spread out a picnic at Pier 62, or wander along the water up to Myrtle Edwards Park (3130 Alaskan Way). Alternatively, scale the Harbor Steps up to First Avenue for access to shops and museums, or climb the stairs up the back of Pike Place Market, where hole-in-the-wall restaurants with views of the water and mountains beckon."-
