Join Candace Molatore (hey.candace) and Laura Arbo (laura_elizabeth) on their epic fall girls' getaway.
They stayed at Element Seattle Sea-Tac Airport Hotel and borrowed bikes to ride along the Interurban Trail to Fort Dent Park to do some fall leaf spotting. From there, they headed to the SeaTac Night Market at The Roadhouse, a multi-use space at the Angle Lake Light Rail Station, to enjoy local pop-ups and vintage stalls. Finally, they wrapped up their first day with dinner at Rendition in Tukwila.
The next morning started with fall drinks at Second Love, perfect for enjoying while walking through the Des Moines Farmers Market. They then visited Zenith Holland Nursery, a hundred-year-old greenhouse in Des Moines that goes all out for fall and often hosts seasonal classes. While there, they took a class on how to make a succulent planter out of a pumpkin.
Finally, it was off to afternoon tea and Paris Baguette for the trip home, capping off a weekend full of tasty bites, great sights, and memories made together.
