I'm going to be spending a long weekend in Seattle near the end of May, and I'm curious about suggestions people might have for what to do there.
My girlfriend is going to a conference there, and will be available sporadically to do stuff with me. For the most part, though, I'll be spending the days by myself. I'm going to be getting in Thursday night and leaving Monday afternoon. We're going to be staying right in the middle of downtown, but won't have a vehicle, in all likelihood. This means that I'm pretty much limited to things that are accessible from public transportation.
I've been to Seattle before, but I didn't get out much - I was a camp counselor for WotC's GameCamp, and was pretty much in the University District all the time. I didn't have any transportation, either, so I didn't get to see much of the city.
So, any suggestions as to what to do? I'm mostly thinking geek-related stuff to do - game stores I shouldn't miss, events that might be happening that weekend, that kind of thing. The more normal "touristy" stuff I'll do when my girlfriend is available. I know that the region has a significant Pathfinder Society presence; I'd like to find a game of that over the weekend, as that's not something I've been able to do before due to no presence around here.
Thanks for any suggestions people might have!
