Mount St. Helen's crater. It's amazing. Half the side of a mountain was blown apart by the volcano.

Seattle is a nice city. Be sure to go near the harbor and try some of the seafood places there.

I lived in Seattle for years ...

--Archie McPhee's. very fun store with great wacky stuff definitely worth On NW Market St. in Ballard just north of downtown.
--Dick's Deluxe Burgers. old timey fast food burger place. great burgers, cheap, but very traditional to Seattle. There are a few all around the city so just use your GPS
--Ballard Lochs. beautiful park area with actual lochs that's about 35-50' deep which fills up to move boats in and out.
--west of these lochs are a few waterfront seafood restaurants that are all good.
--Kerry Park. just north of downtown, probably the best and largest views of downtown Seattle.
--Alki Beach/Hamilton Viewpoint Park. best views of downtown Seattle from across the water on the west.
--Dimitrou's Jazz alley. if you're into jazz this is a semi-famous jazz club.

The Capital Hill section has a lot of fun stuff too, but basically look these places up on the internet I mentioned and you'll be able to figure what you'd be into. But there are a lot of great things to see and do there.

there is an awesome sports bar named jillians right on lake union a couple blocks from the space needle. it was awesome. tons of beers, great food, and like 100 tvs. it's three levels filled with pool tables, dart boards, golden tee, and other arcade games. we were staying about a block away so i logged in some serious hours in there and loved it!
