We are about to depart Seattle, after spending a fun day/night with friends Ben and Debbie. We had a short drive (probably our shortest!) from Portland yesterday and got up to Seattle by 2:00. After finding Ben and Debbie's great condo, we wandered downtown by foot to the famous Pike Place Market. Even though it was Monday, the area was bustling with so many people who were soaking in the sights of fresh fruits, local crafts, and flying fish! We met up with Ben and Debbie after work and had some dinner at a local French restaurant called Maximilien's. Then they took us up to an overlook at sunset where we had the most incredible views of the city. We could clearly see Mt. Rainier in the distance...quite impressive! After having some decadent desserts at a local coffee shop/bakery, we were full and ready for bed. What a fun day!! Thanks Ben and Debbie, for being our amazing hosts!
Today we depart for Spokane, WA where we will camp. Then it's off to Bozeman for 2 days! I can't believe that today starts our actual journey east. We've already traveled 1200 miles....about 3000 more to go!!
