Visitation: Seattle, Washington

Land resting easily along the coast, surrounded by evergreen foresting and with a scenic view of Mount Rainier, the volcano is dormant at least though so it possesses no danger, just beauty. As I did you can hike or even scale the clean smelling evergreen forest, gently fading to a cleat white snowy mountainous paths. Once getting to the top wind is so strong and cold it could knock you back. You can climb into the volcano itself and take a nice leisurely break from all the trouble it took to get there.

Leading away from the mountain and along the clean black paved roads that they all either seem like they are perfectly new or a dirt pass that makes you feel like you are in the country side. Some roads are amazing because of how the trees form around almost as if the cave was overgrown with evergreens. That.. is amazing thing to drive through.

When you visit the city, you can always feel a breeze running through your hair and slipping through the large glass towers. Always having a moderate temperature until winter attacks with storms of snow. Seattle drives people away with its cloudy days and rainy days. Me? It keeps me around, the rainfall fells amazing when it hits your skin and when I see the sun, I appreciate it that much more.

Walking the streets even in a city you can find the trees finding a nice small habitat for them. I can't ever get over how clean it is. Ever. The streets are safe but as soon as you come across one neighborhood you feel terror in comparison from leisure to the slums, such a drastic change that you'd expect the utopia to never have. I've never even really been into those neighborhoods, I figure they will have roads like that in every large city because of how unavoidable it is, but even in the slums there, they don't seem so horrible compared to other places I've seen. There is less light giving an uncomfortable feeling at night as if someone is always watching you. The apartment buildings are stacked high and close to each other covered in different types of muck. I couldn't see for very long because we were in a car on our way to the shore, but that is what I saw.

When I got to the shore that, that is clean. The sand gently touching the shore. So soft and gently running through my toes, the soft air the ocean breathed on my face that smelt of sea salt. The ocean there is cool and nice. Walking up shore you could run into wild life of jelly fish sadly washed up to shore, as soon as you see it, you are standing next to it and your heart drops in fear that you'll accidentally touch it. After seeing all of the shells and shore creatures you come up to the magnificent pier that grew so large.

Climbing up the gentle sand hill to the deck of the pier you look for miles in bright lights and the large numbers of sails covering the horizon and leaving little space for any other boat along the pier. The whiteness of the boats with each individual design that went from simple colored lines to a complex drawing on the side. It was brilliant.

Passing the pier onto the boardwalk the multitude of  restaurants and stores came into view, again seeing the cleanly paved white sidewalks walking store to store, smelling the smell of newly bought clothes and fresh seafood, I couldn't help but pas by the PacSun and Urban Outfitters to eat at the Sushi and Steak House. It was an idea that was lead by two men, one Japanese and the other American. They joined together to make the multi-ethnic restaurant. My family runs for their delicious steak burgers and I chow down on the greatest flavor of freshly snatched seafood platter of sushi. Organized and decorated to perfection. The flavor is indescribable, but I could easily live off of sushi alone because of how delicious it is to me.

You can go around and through the impacting artistic city with art and "graffiti" nicely placed throughout the city making everything resonate and truly makes the city more colorful. The people there are mixed in race never being stuck in white country you can go around corner to corner seeing different street performers playing their instruments of all kinds and dancing to the beats that can attract crowds.

I always have to visit some of the local venues. I never go to the same ones, I go coffee shop to coffee shop looking for information about performances around or even at the shop itself. Every single once has a nice tint that reminds me of an instagram camera. The smell and taste of coffee makes me rip my wallet out of my packet to take in some of the best coffee in America. The great Seattle Coffee. "Ahhhh" I can never get enough of it.

When I finish with my coffees the one time I went to the Seattle Space Needle. The tower amazed me and put me in irreversable awe. It's not for the fact that there are restaurants and stores high in the sky sitting on top of glass. The glass that glistens with a gentle reflection but almost nearly perfectly clean to look through. They used to have rooms up there that could be rented to sleep in the skies... During the night the view could bring tears to my eyes. Looking out from high looking like you could be in a unmoving midair plane. All the little lights shining from under me like closely dense stars. The movements from cars and all the people in their party-filled nights. The view was beautiful and that... treats my dream of seeing the world from the skies. Seeing everything... next to nothing blocking the view. Amazing.
