We're back from our whirlwind West Coast adventure, and whirlwind and adventure it definitely was. While it's back to reality tomorrow, I can't wait to share our adventures over the next few weeks. Until then, here's just a little teaser for what we did, saw, ate, drank, etc. on our vacation to Alaska and Seattle, according to my iPhone.
We'll start in Alaska...
1// My amazing travel partner.
2// Helloooooo mountains!
3// Part of the AK welcoming committee. Missed this fella.
1// First dinner, fresh salmon.
2// Missed the west coast beer scene.
3// It's normal to get your fishing license in the gun section, right?
1// The view that never gets old.
2// Pit stop for a pint at Moose's Tooth Pub & Pizzeria.
3// Where it all began, our first apartment together.
1// Allow me to introduce you to my friend, midnight sun.
2// Fishing trip in Kachemak Bay.
3// Hard to fall asleep on the boat when you have this view.
1// As the only Canadian that worked at the Zoo, I thought it was only appropriate to celebrate the birth of Canada, and my favourite zookeeper, when I visited.
2// Best friends.
3// Wolf pup selfie.
1// More hops in my belly.
2// Couldn't leave without lunch at Lucky Wishbone.
3// Midnight Sun brewery.
1// Wild lupine.
2// Flat top mountain.
3// Final dinner - pizza and pints at Moose's Tooth.
And then hop down to the Lower 48 for our visit to Seattle...
1// First taste of Seattle coffee at Local360.
2// Pike Place Market.
3// Pike Brewery.
1// Beautiful day in the rainy city.
2// Seattle Aquarium, a must on our list.
3// The perfect match, fresh Puget Sound oysters and a West Coast IPA.
1// A beautiful day for a beautiful wedding.
2// Space Needle.
3// More hops before we head back to the real world.
Ok, so I know that was a lot of photos. But, it was one of the our best vacations. More to come soon...
I love the midnight sun and the beautiful views it brings. And I am from Oregon and we always got our fishing license in the gun section as well, so sounds normal to me ;)
ReplyDeleteMidnight sun is on my list of favorite things for sure. I guess growing up in Canada it's out of the norm for us lol
DeleteSo much beer & burgers .... I'm in love! Looks like you had a wonderful vacation. Is Seattle's coffee really everything everyone claims it to be?

We did! I'm a huge coffee lover, so I have to say it was pretty good. And when in Seattle, you can't not go to the original Starbucks :)
DeleteThe views in Alaska are so breathtaking! Midnight sun? Yes please -- how beautiful. And Seattle looks like such a great time too! Glad you had a nice trip :)
ReplyDeleteIt was an amazing trip, but of course not long enough :)
