... the market were 3 or 4 floors of shops. Near the Market was the Seattle Art Museum. I hope we can come back one day and visit it.<br>Leaving Seattle we drove past Mariner's Safeco Field and the Seahawk's Quest Stadium. Traffic picked up into Portland and Eugene. Our day ended in Grants Pass, Oregon. Nice place to end it.

... die Weinberge hoch Richtung Oregon nach Williams. Auf Grund eines technischen Fehlers sind wir dann mit reichlich Verspaetung in Williams angekommen. Heute haben wir dann eine Tagestour zum Crater Lake unternommen, dem tiefsten See der Staaten. Schaut euch einfach die Bilder der letzten Tage an. Viel Spass.

This was an unexpected highlight brought to me by Tamami, who found it on the web. An entire hotel and resort entirely in the trees. Well, sort of. Most of the rooms are up in the trees, some as much as 40 feet, and some even have water and bathroom facilities. The whole place has been around for over 20 years and they have been adding on rooms and things to do ever ...

... there were about 25 people (only about half of which were also at Sami's on Saturday.<br><br>We also went to gatherings at a few other friends' homes, like Janine and Larry's and Stephanie and Lyle's and a couple of Pampered Chef parties, too. Stephanie has mules and donkeys, including one of the biggest donkeys I've ever seen (close to 5' at the shoulders). <br><br>I only got to go horseback riding once, but it turned out to be a rather interesting ride. There ...

... to us - it's was a very small town! So yeah didnt get a whole lot of emails sent off cos he was such a chatterbox - he is an aspiring rapper so he started singing me one of his songs then got all embarrassed so played a couple he had recorded on his laptop!! Hilarious - not bad songs but funny guy haha. So yeah, another long day tomorrow, will see how far we get.

Now that we are home I wanted to share what we have learned about Belize. Caye Caulker is a cool funky little island but tourists beware of smoking pot. We met a guy who got shaken down by the local cop(s) for smoking a joint at the end of a pier. The cop took all the money in his wallet and his weed (probably for re-sale). The local folks seem to smoke it with out much hassle pretty much anywhere. The Ragamuffin' Tour is worth every Penny. You save a bunch of ...

Well we have 2 weeks before we leave for Sacramento, where we fly out of on the 17th. We will be heading to Denver first where we will spend the night with our girls Ashley and Lindsay. On the 18th we fly to Belize. When we get to Belize City we are to be met by a driver who will wisk us away to the water taxi. The water taxi will take us to Caye Caulker where we will stay 2 nights at Lee Side Villas. On Friday morning we board a sail boat bound for Placencia. The tour is ...

... have done it but I got to see it and another day Williamsburg and another day Virgina Beach. So again, I never had to do any travel planning as my cousin was supposed to be our guide but she kept putting it off so we ended up only doing 3 1/2 days worth of sightseeing before having to go home in the 6 total days we were there and so I wasn't impressed and I highly doubt I will go see Washington DC again as I have pretty much seen most of the major stuff such as Smithonian ...

... to Berkeley to Marin County, through Santa Rosa...it was six lanes, 65 mph, lots of cars but not enough to slow it down, smog and glitter and all of that. Past Santa Rosa it thinned out, as if that was as far from the Bay Area most people were willing to live and commute. The traffic lessoned, the development fell off, and we were driving through the grassy hills of Sonoma County. It was like six hours of West Virginia on the interstate, fast, but ...
