I'm about to visit soon but I haven't been to Seattle since 2019. What's changed since the world ended and restarted?

Which museums do you guys recommend?

I liked Museum of History and Industry. Also a nice streetcar ride to it...

We played tour guide for my boyfriend’s mom a couple weeks ago. The highlight for me was the Bloedel Reserve on Bainbridge Island. It’s a 140 acre nature preserve with a native wildflower meadow, ponds, a Japanese garden, a mansion, a moss forest and more.

20-ish minute ferry ride from downtown Seattle. You have to buy tickets for an entrance time so it doesn’t get crowded. They close at 5 and last entrance is 3:30. I’ve lived in Seattle my whole life and can’t believe I’d never even heard of it.
