Off To Seattle

It was off to Seattle last weekend to take a break from Victoria and celebrate Tasha's birthday. We took the Coho ferry from Victoria harbour and drove from Port Angeles to downtown Seattle.

They sure have a unique way of parking on the ferry...




Port Angeles is a major freighter port of call.




We had to take the Kingston-Edmonds ferry and I couldn't believe what they had in the cafeteria: corndogs!!




When we pulled up to the hotel the valet took a look at the car and must have thought "Hey, the Ho-Jo is down the road"...but he parked us anyway.




View from our room...




There is always an idiot with a camera...




Couldn't pay me enough to do this job!







We went an a guided tour of Seattle and checked out many sights including the locks...




Cool sculptures...







Pike Place Market...










Great view of the city



All too soon it was time to head back. But not before loading up on clothes at the outlet and discount stores...actually I was the one that had to be dragged away!

It was a great time but nothing beats the sight of home sweet home!
