Edmonds was a safe feeling place spend a day. The crime rate is much lower than nearby Seattle, and the streets are kept up nicely. Edmonds' "Bowl" is a natural amphitheater that sits above the little town, which is perched on the shore of Puget Sound.
Favorite places were the waterfront with the fishing pier and ferry dock and marina. It was a great place to eat, walk, look at pretty boat or even to take a whale watching tour. Up the hill a few blocks the downtown area was easy to walk and had many interesting stores and shops to explore. There seemed to be a great restaurant on every block, too.
