Inn At Port Gardner Everett

... Duck tour. Our driver Helen Wheels (Hell on Wheels) is married to one of the Hansens in Deadliest Catch...this is where the boats go out from. We went around the town and then into Logan Lake. We got to see the "Restless in Seattle" floating home and others around the lake. One thing we got out of the tour was seeing a non-self service car wash. We had been looking for one since the Jeep had only been washed once since we left Jax. Seems ...

... ich über Bequemlichkeit der Sitze und Beinfreiheit positiv überrascht, jeder hat seinen eigenen Monitor mit dem man auch ohne Fenster, dank Kamera rauschauen kann.Es laufen haufenweise Filme, Musik und spielen kann man damit sogar auch. (Claudius wird jetzt dasitzen und sagen: "Der sollte mal die Businessclass sehen") Auf jeden Fall ist man das als Ryanairflieger nicht gewöhnt. Ich verspreche ich schreibe dann ...

Hans and I had been waiting for this trip for a looonnnng time, and we were ready to roll Saturday morning. Literally - we rolled our luggage to the bus stop, took the trusty 255 downtown, connected with another bus and then walked down to the pier. We had a "normal" room, so no preferred treatment like the suite-ys get - but Norwegian did a pretty good job of moving things along. We turned over our luggage, walked on board, and were met with sanitizer ...

... it wasn't from around here. In his defense, there seem to be a lot of different accents here, many of which - I'm guessing - may be influenced by Canadians in the area, and by the large number of people who are here - either living, working or vacationing - from Asia, India, and other places across the Pacific. Today was our aviation day, which my boss, Tim, would have especially liked. We started out at the Museum of Flight, south of Seattle, which, similar to the National Air ...

... family has been providing has really helped Sheryl and Alex as they adjust.  They are eternally grateful. Sweet cards and packages have been arriving in the mail - helping them to celebrate and enjoy this most gracious blessing - their son Kai. That is update # 3. We'll keep them coming. Eventually Alex and Sheryl will use their travelpod blog as a place for photos and updates -but not now. They have healing, resting, pumping, and eating on their minds. Much love to you all!

... left the impression, it was magical. An example: A couple of nights before I left, we went out to dinner at a posh roof-top restaurant with a sweeping view of the city. As we stepped outside to select a pool-side table, we looked up to see a perfect crescent moon about to set directly above Doi Suthep temple, on a mountain overlooking the city. Another example: On my final night in ...

... An hour later I arrived at our hotel the "beacon" hotel which was located in a nice area nearby to Times Square and Central Park. Mum and Dad were waiting for me in the hotel room and it was lovely to see them again as it has been a far amount of time since I last saw them. We went down the road and had a beautiful dinner before headed back for some sleep and I really needed it. Another long day with the flights and waiting in airports still I was in New York so I couldn't complain. Xxx

... it (see Jimi's left knee). I took a ferry trip across to Blake Island where there was a show all about the native indians of Seattle and a dinner of traditionally cooked salmon. I met a lovely Seattlite couple who were celebrating their wedding anniversary but took time to talk to me about my travels and reccomend things to do. They invited me to the ball game (baseball) the following night as Jerry works as a seat usher part time. I managed to go ...

A grand ride north along the edge of Puget Sound, now into Everett, a tunnel puts us in the dark, now turning east, and stop. More passengers aboard, we stand and watch and then we're off again, the flat land with the farms, the hills we start to climb, we're headed straight into the Cascade Mountain range. Our dinner is at 7, by appointment, a booth for four ...

... NIN, we knew we couldn't miss it! The concert was well worth the trip. Josh Homme was hilarious, as usual. He has quite a dirty mouth but I do enjoy his sense of humour. Nine Inch Nails were also fantastic. They put on an amazing show and the new album is awesome. It was an amazing night in Seattle!
