Not sure why I'm doing this: Seattle

Ok, it's going to be strong chance that Seattle will rain...when I drop by for 1.5 days later this month. I'm not even sure why I'm doing this in November (?) ...especially flying into Vancouver and then next day going to Seattle...to meet up dearie. (He's been travelling.)

And then return to Vancouver, BC. late next day. Makes sense?

But Amtrak train has some good deals this month. And I'm hoping to do some shopping... No, I'm not bringing my bike. But the particular train I'll be on doesn't accept bikes.
I have no time to do multiple day bike ride..with lots of personal stuff to deal with and to relax in Vancouver.

At least the Cascadia train run is a nice lovely run and this train is nice to be on. Look into Amtrak --you might like it after all.

Sounds to me like maybe you are doing it to see your dearie.

Well yes of course see dearie. But maybe it's just seizing an opportunity that's convenient where already he will be cycling to get there from Portland.

Somehow I hope not to be too tired running around amongst locations...oh, yea, I am going to a foreign country. :)

I look forward taking in a major art museum for free...it's so rare I time things like this. Hptel accommodation is alot cheaper now.
