Finally made it into Seattle. For some reason both Lee and I slept in till 10 am.....never do that. We have figured out why though...because we could!!!! We stayed last night in an RV park just in Washington State and hit the road pretty much as soon as we realised what time it was lol. We did 186.4 miles (300 kms) today. Washington state has great highways with speed limits of 70 mph (112 kph) and we took advantage of that lol. The Seattle skyline looked very familiar from all the TV shows and movies. Mount St Helen's forms a fantastic backdrop ...looks like a 2D movie set....quite imposing. You older folk will remember it's eruption in 1980 when 57 people died. Love the "feel" of Seattle...will be going in tomorrow to check things out. The weather is phenomenal ...beautifully warm but not hot. Bugs #339 The new van is going like a dream :)
