On
Thursday December 19th, I traveled via Amtrak to Seattle for the
day. I got to the train station early so I could get a parking space
(which is free). As the train headed north I saw the Lancaster House
just north of Ridgefield, the largest egg in the world at Winlock, south of
Tacoma and the 1940 Tacoma Narrows Bridge.
I
surprisingly arrived at the station on time, walked diagonally across the
street and caught the first bus to 3rd and Union. I attended a
Geocaching Event: You can always go Downtown - December 2019 Chat from Noon - 1PM at Starbucks at the Russell
Investment Center. The next event will be in February which will be
the same day as SAM is free.
Afterwards I traveled via bus to the Fremont
district. I found the Virtual near Groundspeak Hdqts (my second
try). I caught a bus and then transferred to another bus to reach
the Key Arena. I walked a few blocks to McMenamins on Roy Street to
get a Passport Stamp. I walked to Seattle Center where I purchased a
Cheese and Fruit Protein box at Starbucks in the Armory. Did not
have any shortbread cookies. I rode the front seat of the Monorail
to downtown.
I stopped at Starbucks where I purchased shortbread
cookies. I walked west to 2nd Street where I caught the first bus to
the King Street Station. I rode the 6:08 Amtrak train
south in Business Class. I think that I will no longer do that
as I am always one of the first to board the train so I have a choice of
seats. All in all it was a great trip. A bit damp though
as Seattle had five inches of rain in two days!
