Parks & Nature
I actually like this zoo better than the Woodland Park Zoo in Seattle, since the design of the exhibits allow you closer and clearer views. In particular, the tiger exhibit is one of the best I have ever experienced. As a bonus, there is a really great aquarium in the zoo so you don't even have to go to the Seattle Aquarium.

As a contrast to Central Park in NY, this park is full of natural landscape where you are surrounded by large trees of the Northwest. Rhododendron Garden, beaches, trails, and a old-growth forest make this a beautiful place.

This "park" is actually an island located offshore from Kopachuck State Park. Accessible only by boat. An interesting tidbit is that this island is also known as Deadman's Island, as it is believed to have served as a tribal burial ground. Legend has it, the dead were placed in canoes in the forks of trees on this island...The island also offers scuba diving!
