Day Four
Time for a journey through Seattle's outer neighborhoods. Start the morning
in South Lake Union, where a lakeside park hosts the
Museum of History &
Industry
, a roller-coaster journey through Seattle's past. If there's time after-
wards, pop into the
Center for Wooden Boats
to plan future sailing sorties.
Lunch
Dine at Serious Biscuit (

)
, owned by celebrity chef Tom
Douglas.
Stroll through Westlake along the
Cheshiahud Loop
, or flag a bus to take you
to Fremont. Soon after crossing the Fremont Bridge, you'll spy
Waiting for the
Interurban
and, within the space of a few blocks, several other whimsical
sculptures. It would be foolish to leave Fremont without a visit to
Theo Chocolate
Factory
. Get to know the locals afterwards at
Fremont Brewery
before hitting the
Burke-Gilman Trail
(or getting a bus) to Ballard.
Dinner
Go French at Bastille Cafe & Bar (

)
on Ballard Ave NW.
If weather permits, stroll out to the
Hiram M Chittenden Locks
for sunset,
before returning to Ballard Ave to experience the neighborhood's self-con-
tained nightlife. Whiskey flows in new bar
Sexton
, and epic beer can be pro-
cured in
Noble Fir
. Of Ballard's two small music venues, the
Tractor Tavern
is le-
gendary. Check the schedules on the door.
