We Arrived On The Pacific Coast At the World’s Longest Beach – Day 60

Today we headed southeast, not knowing that we would end up at the World’s Longest Beach. In fact, we had all intentions to spend the night in the small town of South Bend, Washington. A couple of days ago we contacted a county park campground in this area to reserve a campsite. Unfortunately, they called […]

Living In A Teardrop Camper – What It’s Really Like! Day 59

The questions come every day on our trip, and they all have to do with one big subject : what is it really like living in a teardrop camper day to day? And the questions cover every aspect of the topic imaginable. Are you comfortable inside? Do you two have enough room? What is it […]

Seattle Underground Tour, A Troll and Family – Day 58

Today, on our final day in Seattle, we were able to partake in a little history of how the town was built by taking the famous Seattle Underground Tour. And by underground, I don’t mean the dirt and gossip on how the city was made years ago. I literally mean underground. The sidewalks and streets […]

A Dazzling Tour Of Chihuly Garden And Glass – Day 57

So many of the recommendations we received for the state of Washington included the phrase “you must-see Chihuly Garden and Glass!” And fortunately for us, we listened to that advice! It was truly an amazing experience for both of us, and one we will never forget. Learning about Chihuly… It was so neat to learn […]

A Visit To the Iconic Seattle Space Needle – Day 56

Long before we ever arrived in Seattle, we knew that a visit to the Space Needle was a must! And after visiting the area and spending the admission fee to head to the top, I have to admit, it was money worth spent! However, after spending the first few days in the Seattle area, we […]

Whale Watching Tour – Marking An Item Off Our Bucket List – Day 54

Before we left for our trip we often were asked what we were looking forward to doing the most, and I have to admit, going on a whale watching tour was definitely one of those items. And on day 54, we were able to do just that. It all started just 25 miles north of […]

Seattle’s Iconic Pike Place Market – And A Bubble Gum Wall? Day 53

If there is one place we have both been looking forward to taking in during our time in the state of Washington, it was the Pike Place Market. Located on the edge of Elliot Bay in Seattle, the public market has been in existence since August, 17th of 1907. Not only is it one of […]

A Trip to Snoqualmie Falls and A Washington Flower Farm – Day 52

Today we headed to one of the Pacific Northwest’s greatest natural wonders, Snoqualmie Falls. This is the site that the Snoqualmie River plunges down 270 feet, over 10 stories higher than Niagara Falls. And at the top corner of the falls, you can see the Snoqualmie River Hydroelectric Project. The energy generated from the water […]

Starting Washington Off With A Drive Through Apple Country! Day 51

Although Mother Nature forced us to change our plans a bit again, at least it gave us the opportunity to drive through the heart of Apple Country in Washington on a beautiful sunny day! Our original plan was to leave Idaho and enter Washington on Wednesday. That of course all changed when the newest, latest […]
