Grand Adventures

Over Pioneer week Erica and I had our adventure for the year.  We drove up to Seattle and camped out there for 4 days.  We didn't really have much of a plan going into the vacation, which is very unlike us.  It ended up turning out fabulous.  We got to see a lot of fun things and really enjoyed ourselves.  Here is a picture recap of our journey.

This was our camping home while in Seattle.  We stayed about 20 miles outside of the city at Dash Point State park.

We went into Tacoma to explore and found this fun mosaic fish on our way back from eating dinner.

Our first stop in Seattle was to Pike Place

At the Seattle Aquarium 

On a bay cruise out in Elliot Bay

At the Experience Music Project (EMP).  It's a sculptures of guitars/

At Point Defiance park just outside of Tacoma.  They had a fun botanical garden and a lot of fun hiking paths through the woods.

At the Science Museum.  I am standing next to a mirror.  There were a lot of fun things at this museum.

Large table and chairs that begged us to get a picture with them

The famous gum wall down Post Alley

Last stop was the Seattle Temple.  

Erica and I had a great trip and the best part is despite the immense amount of time we spent together we never got angry with each other (at least that we let show).  Yay for fun adventurous friends!
