We woke up to our ship docking in Juneau around 5:30am Alaska Time. It was a beautiful morning! Neat wall of fog behind us that looks like a glacier as we were pulling into Juneau: We really liked seeing all the tall and skinny waterfalls. It looks like Hawaii! This is the first time we’ve … More 1 Year Journey – Alaska – Juneau
We woke up to complete fog the next day. It remained like that for most of the day. We spent the entire day at sea, so I’m not sure what all we missed scenery wise due to the fog. We could hear the ship’s foghorn sound every three minutes. We went up to the upper … More 1 Year Journey – Alaska – Ketchikan
We shipped out of Seattle and headed toward Alaska! We stored our RV in the cruise ship parking at Lake Pleasant RV park, which has electrical hookups to keep your refrigerator going. The electrical posts are shared by several RVs and require you to convert down to 110AC. It looked a little like a … More 1 Year Journey – Alaska!
Avin had been seeing the “Ride the Ducks” vehicles around Seattle and wanted to ride them. We finally made time to do that and it was a lot of fun! We also took some time to see the huge fountain near the space needle. I remember coming here is a kid. Tripp loved running around the … More 1 Year Journey – Washington Part 6
We made yet another trip to REI in Seattle. That store is so much fun! It’s probably my favorite place to shop and drool over cool outdoor stuff. They were having an outdoor event on their huge patio on the second floor and there was lots of food, drinks, and music. I tried a caribou … More 1 Year Journey – Washington Part 5
After a couple nights at Issaquah Village RV Park, we headed back to Lake Pleasant RV Park in Bothell (we only moved over to Issaquah because Lake Pleasant didn’t have those nights available). I’m glad to be going back, as the I-90 freeway noise here is pretty bad and it gets on your nerves after … More 1 Year Journey – Washington Part 4
We spent the afternoon at Mount Rainier National Park! This is something I’ve been wanting to do for years. We went here when I was really young, but I couldn’t really remember much about it. We drove about 2.5 hours from Bothell to Paradise, WA, which is right on the side of the mountain at … More 1 Year Journey – Washington – Part 3
Just as we did when Minda and I were kids, we ate Spud Fish n Chips at Juanita Beach! The next day we went to a movie in the park at Marymoor Park and watched Finding Dory! Huge turnout! They had everybody stand up and dance for a minute before the movie started…we didn’t … More 1 Year Journey – Washington Part 2
Couple more pictures from Ona Beach in Oregon (sometimes I forget about pictures taken on other phones that we use): We are constantly looking for creatures in the water… This is one of the best parts about being near the beach! It is so much fun to build a fire on the beach and roast … More 1 Year Journey – Washington Part 1
We’ve really enjoyed being in Oregon! The weather has been awesome and it’s been really relaxing. There are so many great beaches to stop at, and I love the fog covering the evergreen trees up on the hills. The kids have started school again for the Fall, and Carla is doing a great job teaching … More 1 Year Journey – Leaving Oregon
