Sunny Seattle

Details

Published Date

From Olympic National Park I headed around Puget Sound to Seattle.  Due to my inability to communicate properly I ended up surprising my friend by showing up about a week before she was expecting me.  Luckily she had a couch to spare and wonderfully understanding roommates that put up with the invasion of their home.  I settled in and awaited the arrival of my road trip buddy, Claire.  

I had the good fortune of making it to watch a Sounders MLS game, which was very fun.  They won, making it even better!

While I was there Seattle did all it could to discredit it's reputation as a rainy and gloomy place.  Do not get me wrong, it rained while I was there but I had more than my fair share of beautiful, sunny days as well.  Pretty much most of my time was spent enjoying those sunny days with my two best friends from home.  It never fails to amaze me how much my sense of 'home' is based on the people as much as the location.

That being said, I was still looking forward to reaching actual home.  So with approximately 52 hours of driving ahead of us, Claire and I said so long to Seattle on Monday around noon.
