Seattle Proper, is not the best place. I was just there in October.<br><br>Most any of the outskirts are fine tho. I did stay 1 night in downtown Seattle, it was OK. But I wouldn't want to have to hunt for free parking spots allowed all night long in Seattle Proper, even near Seattle it can be hard to find. I spent most of my time in Seattle way up north near Marysville, and had a much better time <img src="/images/boards/smilies/smile.gif" border="0" align="absmiddle"><br><br>There is a public land on the west side of Seattle. I didn't manage to make it out there this trip (I was visiting my sister the whole time pretty much) but I hope next time I'm up there, I will find some time to go out there.<br><br>There is a thread or three around here if you search the forums for Seattle, that give more specific places to park.<br><br>With Love,<br>Tara
