Seattle
Perhaps best known as the birthplace of grunge, this city on the Puget Sound has a lot more than rain and coffee. There is a fairly large downtown section, with a nearby fish market. There are lots of nice parks on the sound and a lot of hills (the whole city seems to be built into a steep incline). Sometimes if it's clear you can see Mt. Rainier in the distance. I was a little disappointed, however, that the monorail only goes between the Space Needle and a mall downtown. I thought it was their subway system.
