Seattle screams coffee, Bill Gates and the birth of grunge rock, but there's more than meets the eye in Emerald City. Over three million Pacific Northwesterners call Seattle home, as did Jimi Hendrix and Bruce Lee. The continental United States' northwesternmost point, Seattle sits on the Pacific Rim with sweeping panorama views of Puget Sound, the San Juan Islands, the Olympic mountain range and majestic Mount Rainier. Home to the University of Washington, Seattle is the nation's most educated city, with the highest percentage of college graduates. Seattle offers its residents a high quality of life and travelers a memorable visit, with opportunities to golf, sail, ski, kayak, camp and hike, as well as urban pleasures like world-class restaurants, stylish shopping, luxurious hotels and vibrant nightlife, including, of course, an always-evolving live music scene.

March is when the daffodils make their first appearance, and the Tulips come to life in April The blooming lasts well into May, when irises and lilies make their appearance. La Conner and Mount Vernon are two towns that are filled with visitors who come here for the Skagit Valley Tulip Festival and the accompanying events, such as the Street Fair, the Tulip Parade, Art Shows, a Quilt Walk, and a salmon barbeque. Aside from all the fun, you can add to the main industry of Skagit Valley and purchase some tulips bulbs, or just take pictures of the display gardens and the colorful fields.

Moving information

Corteo, which means "cortege" in Italian, is a joyous procession, a festive parade imagined by a clown. The show brings together the passion of the actor with the grace and power of the acrobat to plunge the audience into a theatrical world of fun, comedy and spontaneity situated in a mysterious space between heaven and earth. The clown pictures his own funeral taking place in a carnival atmosphere, watched over by quietly caring angels. Juxtaposing the large with the small, the ridiculous with the tragic and the magic of perfection with the charm of imperfection, the show highlights the strength and fragility of the clown, as well as his wisdom and kindness, to illustrate the portion of humanity that is within each of us. The music, by turns lyrical and playful, carries Corteo through a timeless celebration in which illusion teases reality.
