Just a quick blog, to update you all about Seattle.
Saturday, we took a 4 hour bus ride from Vancouver to Seattle, unfortunately the plan of catching the train that Cam and I did a few years back fell through as the train only runs in the night.
The bus didn’t have anything on the train, so if anyone is thinking of getting the train during daylight hours you must get it from Seattle to Vancouver as it’s the only one that runs through daylight hours.
We visited the Boeing factory yesterday, and it boasts the biggest building in the world. All the 7x7’s are assembled here. Was a quick but interesting tour of the plant.
On wandering through the markets yesterday, I found Alaskan King crab. It was 20 US a pound so I only grabbed a small leg. (see pic). Dad you would have loved this crab, without a doubt the sweetest meatiest crab I have ever tasted. The reason they are so expensive is guys get their catch out in the freezing waters off the coast of Alaska and many of them don’t come home.
Last night we ventured up the space needle
for dinner, cost us about 80 Bucks US a head, but it was some fine food and the view was pretty good as well.
I’m on a plane to Orlando at present, we have just flow from the West to the East coast of the USA, it took around 4 hours. I’m really glad I bought the laptop as doing blog’s while flying is a great use of time. It’s much better than sitting in an internet café wasting the holiday away.
Were probably off to Disneyland tomorrow, so everyone have fun at work and just try not to think of me whizzing round space mountain and all the other rollercoaster’s Orlando has to offer.
Keep the comments coming; I hope a few of you are reading these things.
