Wander(lust)

Out of places to visit for his birthday Dean and I have landed on Seattle, WA. We went to Portland in 2008 and it was fantastic so it's only natural to want to visit someplace with a similar climate.

As far as the cost to fly/stay, it will be about the same. I get travel agent discounts on hotels and my Mother in Law gets a discount on cheap airfare.

In Seattle we would go to:
-Pikes Place
-Science Museum and see the Battlestar Galactica exhibit
-Go to Woodland Zoo
-Find some awesome dive bars/restaurants
-Pioneer Square
-Underground walking tour
-Space Needle
-Olympic Sculpture Park
-Take a tour to Mt. Rainier

There's a ton to do there, and now that things are a lot more settled down after the Wedding and the Holidays, we can start to save money to go. I have to take a look at the price of possibly renting a car (plus there is that nasty nasty fee for parking in the city (like $20 bucks per day) but it is at the very least fun to think of a quick getaway. Yes, we just got back from Tahiti last month, but that is not as busy/touristy as other places.

If at all possible, next year I would like to go to Florida and go the Universal Studios there to visit the Harry Potter theme park. I wish we could afford it, but we cant. :(

All for now :)
