從貝爾維尤步行就可以到達西雅圖520大橋，如圖一，這裏還是個很漂亮的公園和停車場，喜歡步行走過大橋就到達西雅圖了，喜歡乘坐公交車也可以，車站就在停車場的下邊，很多車次，而且等車時間都不長，特別方便。

令人驚嘆的海鮮和有趣的氛圍肯定！讓我想起了舊金山；最好的部分是觀看街頭藝人！我遇到了一位女士，她為 Motley Cr&uuml; 的 Dr. Feel good 打鼓，非常棒！我和 4 個海鮮攤販一起吃了牡蠣射手，同時買了美味的煙燻鮭魚。沿著大道走下去，我遇到了一家賣熱巧克力餅乾的地方，上面還撒著片狀海鹽。可口的！最後，有一家土耳其經營的商店，那位女士給了我關於禮物的極好的建議，並吃了我吃過的最好的果仁蜜餅。
