The Walk of Life
Day 21 - The way back to Seattle
September 13, 1998
Victoria - Sidney - Anacortes - Burlington - Seattle
The ferry ride
We
had to get up early enough to make sure we wouldn't miss the Ferry. The
Ferry started in Sidney. We arrived early. This gave us enough time to
have breakfast and fill in the feedback forms while waiting for the Ferry.
Even Andy had time enough to look for his passport. He foun it in his bag
on the roof of the van. We also got a bit impressed by the two old cars
also waiting.
The
Ferry took us from Sidney (Canada) to Anacortes (USA). We had lunch on
the ferry and we even hadchances to see some wild life. They ecpected whales
and lots of birds. And we could see some of them.
From Anacortes it was quite a short drive to Seattle. Most of it was
highway. Not very impressing.
Seattle Downtown
We
arrived in Seattle early. We picked up Abigail who was invited by Mimmi
to show us the city and join our farewell party. We stoped in the market
close to the pier and got one hour to look around downtown Seattle. Since
I've had two days to visit Seattle before the tour, I just rushed around
a little. All the Seattle pictures on this page were taken before the tour.
It wouldn't be possible to see downtown, the pier, the city and even Space
Needle in only one hour.
The tour's end
There's
not too much to comment about a great tour' end. We went to the Grill restaurant
close to the Airport Paza Hotel where most of us stayed. After a good dinner
we enjoyed the night in Elisa's Hotel Bar (or better outside because not
all of us were 21 or older).
This is the end
