Leavenworth Christmas Town I would call it a town with a strong Christmas atmosphere! Exotic houses on both sides of the street are decorated with lights, surrounded by snow-capped mountains.

Franklin Falls, located in the Mt. Baker-Snoqualmie National Forest in Washington State, is a popular hiking destination. The trail to the falls is a moderate 2-mile round trip, making it accessible for families and hikers of all skill levels. The path winds through lush forest scenery, with glimpses of the South Fork Snoqualmie River. The falls themselves drop 70 feet in a series of cascades, creating a picturesque setting perfect for photography and relaxation. Accessible year-round, Franklin Falls is particularly stunning in the spring and early summer when water flow is highest, but winter visits offer the added spectacle of frozen waterfalls. #gohiking

I had heard that cruises get a bad reputation, that cruisers get easily bored on the ship and tend to over-sleep and over-eat, but my first experience was on the Discovery Princess to Alaska, and I would highly recommend this cruise to everyone! Princess has a packed itinerary of daily activities for everyone, so nobody has an excuse to get bored. The ship is massive and new - there’s pools and a fitness center on the top decks, a huge theater, tons of restaurants and a buffet. The spa area is also popular. We didn’t do land excursions, but managed to explore the port cities on foot and had a great time! #cruise #cruiseship #alaska

Seattle Woodland Park Zoo Woodland Park Zoo Zoo is a relatively famous zoo in the northwestern United States, not far from the Seattle downtown, driving distance of 15 minutes is enough.

Two must-see attractions in Seattle, Kerry Park and Pike Market. I went to a city, I like to go to the heights, and I like to go to the market. On the high side, you can overlook the panoramic view of the city, while in the market, you can feel the fireworks on earth. Many people choose the highest building space needle in the city at the Ascend in Seattle, but I recommend Kerry Park, which is a little further from the city, because the space needle itself can be seen here. When the weather is fine, the snow-capped mountains behind the city are also clearly visible. The Pike Market is not just a market, but a popular tourist destination in Seattle. Hyun Bin and Tang Weis "Late Autumn" once took a picture here. The market is full of colorful, large and small stalls displaying flowers, cheese, seafood, fruits and vegetables, second-hand accessories and tourist souvenirs, from time to time to see street performers. Most notably, the world's first Starbucks is also here. I went very early on the day, the flower sellers just transported the flowers and placed them on the side of the road. The water drops on the petals shimmered like pearls under the bright sun, walking here. In a good mood, the exhaustion and time difference of long-distance flight disappeared without a trace. Walking along, inadvertently went to the door of the world's first Starbucks, with a mottled plate "1912" at the door. Go in and order a cup of caramel latte and buy a bag of coffee beans that are said to be available only in this world. There are no seats in the store, some people havetily took away the coffee, and some people stand by the window and chat while chatting. There is a disabled person at the door who sings and sings my favorite old man.

Hop On for Scenic Seattle Views with the West Seattle Water Taxi ⛴️🌊 If you’re itching for a fresh angle on Seattle’s modern skyline (and maybe a misty, moody photo op weather), the West Seattle Water Taxi is your shortcut to outdoor city landscapes, iconic architecture, and river vibes without the parking headache! (Plus, you might catch a cargo ship gliding by for that urban-nature contrast.) Recommended Route: Start at Seacrest Ferry Dock (Seattle, WA 98116) and let the taxi whisk you across Elliott Bay. Snap your first insta-worthy shot right from the dock—especially on a cloudy, rainy day, the skyline looks extra dramatic. Once on board, stick to the outdoor deck for panoramic views. Pro tip: Head straight for the left (port side) seats for the best photo angle, with the city buildings looming behind the sweeping water. Must-Do Activities: Enjoy the breezy ride (bring a light rain jacket, it gets chilly and wet!), and keep your camera ready for a photo of a cargo ship passing by against the skyline. When you land at downtown, explore waterfront parks or nearby cafes for more local color. Top Photo Spots: - Onboard, port side seating for maximum skyline drama - At the dock itself, where you can frame boats with city architecture - Rainy days amp up the moody landscape, so don’t hide from the clouds—they bring those misty Seattle vibes! Practical Tips: Check the schedule (it can change based on season or weather). Arrive early to grab a seat outdoors and dodge city traffic. Bikes can be brought onboard! Ferry runs every 15–30 minutes during peak hours. Precautions: Dress for rain and wind—even in summer, the ride can get brisk. Ferries do fill up on weekends, so plan ahead to avoid delays. #Seattle #WaterTaxi #UrbanNature #CityViews #TravelTips

A winter hiking trip to Seattle's Snow Lake is a must for anyone wanting to experience the true spirit of Seattle. Snow Lake, nestled in the mountains, is considered one of the most beautiful alpine lakes, and when covered in snow, it becomes a winter wonderland. The snow decorates the entire mountain range, like a silver dress wrapping the mountains. The once hard rocks are now gently covered in snow, turning into round snowballs, looking adorable and charming. As we approached the summit, the sun broke through the thick clouds, revealing distant mountains shrouded in mist, creating a fairyland-like atmosphere. The lake was frozen, and the sunlight reflecting off the distant lake surface revealed a hint of blue, reminiscent of the lake's original color. The icy world was breathtakingly beautiful. The once rugged mountain path to Snow Lake is now covered in snow, turning into a smooth road. Even the summit, which once required climbing with both hands and feet, now has a snow-covered path, making it easy to reach. However, crampons are essential to ensure a steady grip on the snow and avoid slipping. I've visited Snow Lake many times, and parking has always been free. Today, the parking lot was empty, with only a few cars, and we happened to encounter a patrol car asking us to scan a code to pay a $60 parking fee. Later, I checked the notice board, and indeed, parking fees had started. Perhaps the ski resort is about to open, and buying a ski pass might waive the parking fee. Despite this, the trip was still perfect and worth it. Around Snow Lake, there are many beautiful spots waiting for visitors to explore. For example, the observation deck at the summit offers a panoramic view of the mountains, showcasing the grandeur of nature. Additionally, there is a forest around Snow Lake, with snow-covered leaves, creating a fairy tale-like atmosphere. Walking through the forest, listening to the sound of falling snow, brings a sense of peace and tranquility. The dining options near Snow Lake are also plentiful, offering local delicacies such as hot soup, delicious grilled meat, and fresh salads. Moreover, there is an outdoor gear store near Snow Lake, where visitors can purchase various winter sports equipment, such as skis, sleds, and crampons. In conclusion, Snow Lake is an excellent winter travel destination, leaving a lasting impression with its natural and cultural attractions. For outdoor enthusiasts, it is a paradise not to be missed.
