There’s a lot to do in Seattle.
You can kayak in Portage Bay, watch professional football, bike around the South Lake Union neighborhood, explore the city’s museums and sample the foods at Pike Place Market.
It was hard to figure out what, exactly, to do in the four days I was in town.
Since I had done the Pike Place thing, toured around downtown Seattle and even made it to West Seattle for some twice-baked croissants, it was time to do a few things I hadn’t done in all of my trips to the Emerald City.
So I left my girlfriend, Chris, do most of the planning. I was just along for the ride.
Here’s what we did on my last full day in Seattle:
Chateau Ste Michelle
This winery is Washington's oldest and most acclaimed, featuring award-winning wines and stunning grounds covering 105 wooded acres in Woodinville. The chateau offers tours and tastings — and we were about to get our Riesling on! My favorite was the 2011 Eroica Riesling with notes of white peach and grapefruit.

so you’ve experienced touristy PacNW, and yuppie PacNW. Redneck PacNW and quirky (think Portlandia) pacNW coming up soon?
Two of my favorite places, the Space Needle and Chateau St. Michelle. What a flood of memories. Can’t wait to see the next stop on your tour.
