Day 57 ( Carnation to Seattle )
Posted on August 2nd, 2009Made it to Seattle !!
Rolled into the city along the gorgeous Snoqualmie River and Burke-Gilman trails, joined by my good friend Matt. We arrived at Gasworks park mid afternoon to wonderful warm weather and the Blue Angels (jets) flying over the city. Spectacular!
With all the excitement of arriving in Seattle, I’ve admittedly lost a bit of momentum on the whole making it to the actual coast thing. I’m going to try to eventually make that happen and bike the rest of the way across the Olympic Peninsula, but it may not happen until later this year.

Congrats on finishing the trip. My husband and I have enjoyed following your adventures. We wanted to bike the entire country but for work reasons we are having to cut it short to only 30 days. If you don’t mind me asking, if you only had 30 days which part of the trip would you do? We are still not sure if we are going to just start in Virginia and see as far as we can get or try to cherry pick the best parts.
Again, congratulations that is an amazing accomplishment.
