The trip left us wanting more. Seattle displays a striking contrast between modern architecture and ancient natural beauty. Because of Seattle's many hills, there are many vantage points from which to see the city. For any foreground scene of recent architectural achievement, there is a background landscape of the Olympics or the Cascades--and always Mt. Rainier in full view. I was left marveling at how young our country is in the midst of a very mature, experienced and beautiful Mother Earth. We wish we had had time to explore some of the earth that cradles this bright, lovely city. To hike along the rises and kayak through the wrinkles. We will have to return.

Oooh! I want to go too. That monster you are posing with near the bottom looks scary.
What a great trip! I can see why you would want to go back, such a beautiful part of the country. I especially liked the shots of the two of you, even with Andrew's hand stuck up the monster's nose!!!
Glad you had a good time. We look forward to hearing more about it when you are here in a few weeks.
Glad to hear you liked Seattle! You'll have to come back when we all have more time! It meant so much to us that you came all the way from Chicago (via Texas, I think) to celebrate with us. Now I'll just have to send you a picture of Patrick and me...
Seattle is way cool; next time you go, you'll have to journey over the border to Vancouver, BC- one of the world's best cities, I must say!
Man, it looks like you had a great time! I wish we could've made the trip too. Seattle is definitely a city I want to visit...someday!
You are right that this country has so many beautiful and wonderful spots to see. Definitely!
