This will be my first time visiting the US! can't wait, and hope to eventually in my life move there.

Anyway, I'm heading to Seattle (Redmond) this coming saturday, tomorrow, for 1 week for a private/company event.

I just wanted to know what the current weather is like there?
What are some things to do/see ?
Any tips on shopping?

How much typically does it cost to get from the Airport to "downtown" seattle? I'll be staying in a hotel @ the sheraton to be specific.

Thanks

The Metro express bus to downtown, the 194 will cost you a dollar and fifty cents on a Saturday and take 35 minutes to it's stop very near the Sheraton. You can also take a taxi or airport shuttle, but the bus is painless and inexpensive.

Cool, thanks for that. How much is it for the taxi ride, just out of curiosity?

you picked a good weekend to visit. Typically weather for this time of the year reaches highs in the mid 50s. Saturday is supposed to be in the 70's, but back to normal on Sunday (mid 50s)
