Hay I'm leaving Alaska for the first time i'm going to Seattle,Washington to see my mom for a week, any place i should check out? other than the Space needle my friends also said i should go see the fish market & the shopping district that sounds good but...eh what should i go see? I though about checking out the museums if there are any in the area.

The fish market is pointless and stupid, filled with dumb tourists watching a guy throw fish. Literally the most tourist thing you can do here. Instead go find the Fremont Troll and take a picture for your dumb social media.
What do you like to do? Seattle has some great museums -- the Henry is really cool, and SAM has some great Native American art that is worth seeing.
Go up to Capitol Hill for restaurants -- hit up Annapurna for delicious Nepalese food, and go up to Uncle Ike's to buy some legal weed (try the Tsunami prerolled joints, my favorite). Seattle is full of great live music venues -- check thestranger.com for event listings as well as general shit to do around town.

annapurna is the shit. also check out the international district OP. uwajimaya is a japanese grocery store which is pretty cool, and there are lots of good restaurants around there. i would recommend chu minh tofu deli (vietnamese), saigon deli (vietnamese), green leaf (vietnamese), thai curry simple (thai), and pho ba (pho).

This place is kind of nice for being able to get fresh takoyaki and other street food in their lunch court. Otherwise not super interesting.

It's stupid though. You go to Pike Place Market and see a guy throw fish for ten seconds and think "wow, why the fuck am I watching this?". There's no point to going there. Like I said, go see the Fremont Troll or the Space Needle if you want a touristy thing to do that's actually kind of interesting.
While you're there take a day trip to mount ranier. Incredibly scenic and well worth a visit.
Alternatively you can take a boat out to that Indian Reservation island. Besides the salmon and show they put on; there is also a neat walking path around the island.
Lastly you can always go whale watching.

Pike Place is retarded
Go to Shiku for sushi, go to Golden Gardens Park (a beach with mountain views right in the city), go to Capitol Hill and walk around, swing by Bait Shop for a drink and a snack, get some beer at Fremont Brewing, go see some live music, thode are the things i remember from my visit
