Starbucks everywhere...

Most of you might know that Starbucks started off in Seattle as one among many small coffee brewing companies which are a quite common sight throughout the city. So it is interesting to see that Starbucks became the multinational coffee empire what it is today... and of course visiting its roots. The Starbucks store #1 is one of the main tourist attractions here in Seattle and of course I had to get my coffee fix there as well.


Also interesting to see is that the Starbucks logo changed over time and on the above picture you can see their old logo which is quite different to what we have today...
Wandering through the different neighborhoods in Seattle makes you understand how the lifestyle of the people living here created this unique coffee culture which got exported across the globe. And I also started to understand why Starbucks is filling other cities with that many coffee shops throughout the world. That is exactly what they did here in Seattle... so you have a Starbucks at every block. Sometimes even two or more! Coming to a city near you soon :o)

This concludes my fabulous trip to Seattle and when I arrived back in Denver most of the snow was already melted. You have to love Colorado for that!
