On August 11th 2006, we set off on our adventure to the USA, after a significant delay. We don't know how long the adventure will last, but it is just the begining. This page is something for family and friends to keep in touch with us, and see what we are up to. Please feel free to add any comments.

Trip to Seattle
So, here we are in Seattle. We visited the flight museum on Sunday, and saw a retired Air Force One place. (This plane carried the president during the 1950's, and is now retired, and no longer in use.) There was an old Concorde also, which allowed us to look through how people used to travel when the Concorde was in the air.
We also visited the Seattle "Space Neddle," which had an amazing view of above Seattle. Because it was such a lovely day, we got to see A LOT !
We visited the "Pike Place" Market, which is where the fresh fish market is. It is extremely popular, and quite busy. There were many bargains, but we did not purchase anything fresh - as we did not have the way to take it home to Portland with us. The last picture is taken from Western Seattle looking back at the city skyline.
All in all, it was a lovely trip, Tara met up with some friends, and we saw a lot of the "tourist places" in Seattle.
