5 Things I Didn't Know About Seattle

1. They LOVE teriyaki. There are teriyaki joints all over this city. 
2. There's actually a spider season. And it appears to be right now. Also: the yard is full of giant snails.
3. Like Minnesota, Seattleites are obsessed with summer festivals.
4. Few stop signs, lots of roundabouts.
5. Nobody carries umbrellas. Well, almost nobody.

Side note: I haven't posted on this blog for exactly 4 months, which happens to be the amount of time we've been Seattleites ourselves. So far, so good -- learning and exploring the city is always exciting.
