A couple is taking a three-day trip to celebrate a birthday. The twist is that the destination is a surprise for the birthday person, Savannah. The husband has chosen five cities (Philadelphia, New York, Chicago, Seattle, and Denver) and will let Savannah randomly select one from a hat. Seattle is chosen, and they document their trip, including trying clam chowder, visiting the aquarium, and shopping. They also visit the first-ever Starbucks store and the Space Needle.
