You’ll want to be Sleepless in Seattle in the Summer

You might think otherwise, but for my money there is no finer place to be during the summer months than in the Pacific Northwest. After months of rain and cool temperatures, the skies clear up and reveal a stunning part of the world. The sun shines almost without interruption from mid-June until September. The temperatures are warm, but rarely hot. Humidity? That doesn’t exist in a city like Seattle in the summer. Beauty? There is no shortage of it. Things to do? A million.

An outsider’s perception of Seattle might be that it is a city of coffee-sipping people constantly getting pissed on by rain. That is only partially true. Seattlites do love their coffee. But come the summertime they love being outdoors even more. Situated right on Puget Sound and within driving distance of the Cascade mountains, Seattle is ideally located for outdoor fun.

If you prefer more of an urban experience, Seattle is a big little city. It has all the trappings of a major metropolis, yet is friendlier and easier to navigate than most. From Pike’s Market to the amazing new art museum to the many fine restaurants and pubs, Seattle is a fun place to go on vacation, especially when you know you can safely leave the umbrella at home.
