Ethiopian Food. If you have never tried it, it is worth the adventure. We love the meat combo (they also have a veggie combo) and we love injera (a pancake like sourdough bread that you eat the meat/veggies with in your hand). Ask the woman there what to do if you have never been. She is super nice.

Sightseeing
I love Theo Chocolate Factory. Tours are $10 and must be booked in advance. No children under 7 are allowed on tours. It is in Fremont, which is an adorable neighborhood on the ship canal. The tours last about an hour and you will get to taste the organic, sustainable, yummy chocolate.

This is very close to the airbnb and has some woodsy hiking trails. There is a kids spray park (May 31st to Sept 1st) and play area. There is a dog park and some trails to walk in the woods. I enjoy going here for a walk to enjoy the trees. It is walking distance from our house. Go South on 3rd Ave NE to 130th Street. Cross the street (carefully as there is no crosswalk) and you will see the trails. Or, you can walk to 1st Ave NE and use the crosswalks by the traffic lights.
