Curved around the shores of Elliott Bay, with Lake Washington behind, and the snowy peak of Mount Rainier hovering faintly in the distance, stands the City of Seattle. The insistently modern skyline of glass skyscrapers gleams across the bay, an emblem of three decades of aggressive urban renewal. Much of modern Seattle began in 1962 with the World’s Fair. It helped spark the creation of the Space Needle, the Seattle Center, the Coliseum, and other local landmarks.

Depending on your arrival time you may want to set out to explore the many distinct sights and sounds of this magnificent city. Tonight, enjoy a sumptuous dinner at acclaimed Andaluca Restaurant. This nationally recognized culinary oasis resonats with the romance of the Mediterranean. Its food and design have been a winning combination since 1996; throughout the handsome space, mahogany mill work, hand painted murals and plush, deep-toned fabrics work together to conjure up a sun baked Mediterranean grotto.
