Well, first off let me say that I know I have been merely a "floater" on the board this year. I have been real busy with my freshmen year of college, which I just completed at University of Redlands in Southern California. Im back in ATL for the summer, working and traveling, just the usual.
Anyways, as has been the norm for the past 4 or so years, I have been planning another long summer rail trip. This year it looks like BWI-WAS-CHI-EMY-SJC-SEA-Bellingham, WA.
Here are the details:
Depart June 12th, 2007 from ATL non-stop flight to BWI.
1.Transfer to Regional Train, southbound to DC-Coach
2. Capital Limited DC-CHI-Sleeper
-One night in Chicago
3. Zephyr CHI-EMY-Sleeper
-2 Nights in EMY
4. Capital EMY-SJC-Coach
5. Caltrain into SF
6. Coast Starlight SJC-SEA-Sleeper
-1 Night in Seattle
7. Cascades SEA-Bellingham, WA-Business Class. My friend from school will pick me up on the ferry from Orcas Island, and we will spend a week crab fishing, kayaking, etc. Should be a blast.
-5 Nights on Orcas
8. Cascades Bellingham, WA-SEA-Business Class.
-1 Night in Seattle
Return home non-stop flight SEA-ATL, June 26th.
The one thing I am fairly excited about is finally being able to take a new route I have never taken before, in this case that would be the Capital Limited. I was looking for was a recommendation for a reasonably priced hotel in Seattle BESIDES the pioneer square best-western, which I have stayed at before on last years trip and was not overly-impressed. Any recommendations would be great.
Good to be back!
