One of the treasured places in Seattle, the Center of Wooden Boats has collections of historical wooden boots. The two charming floating boathouses are a museum preserving the maritime history of the Pacific Northwest area of the United State.
Walk to this science museum from Portland's waterfront trail. Great for families. You can even tour a submarine docked and semi-submerged in Willamette River. #kidfriendly
Their gorgeous entrees will surely attract you; however, be ready for the (slightly overpriced) bill. Serving a full bar with unique cocktails, this place is still a must-try. #sidewalkcafe Photo: biberfan
Live jazz music by local musicians, French food, daily happy hour and weather-permitting sidewalk seating. Frommer's says: "...a crowded and lively restaurant tucked into a narrow (and very European-feeling) side street." #sidewalkcafe Photo: Cafe Claude
Swan heaven - these birds in flight show and add to the feel of the Golden Gate Park and Stow Lake. It is a serene and tranquil place. A must walk while in San Francisco.

Overlooking the Pacific Ocean and Golden Gate Bridge, this urban park is more than just beachfront and trails - there's also a golf course and fine art museum. #urbanbeach Photo: Navin75
Lake Merced is a freshwater lake in the heart of a 600-acre park that attracts bikers, boaters, walkers and nature lovers. There's a 4.5-mile paved loop around the lake and boat launch. #urbanbeach Photo: coolmikeol
Lovely foodie place with patio overlooking Queen Anne Ave. I highly recommend the mussels or clams. #sidewalkcafe #patiobar #outdoordining Photo: emmer&rye
Providing a spacious outdoor patio in the heart of downtown Portland, escape the summer heat and check out their Italian and slightly French cuisine. #patiobar Photo: Stephania Yao/The Oregonian
