OK guys, hotel is out of the way so now for the fun stuff - activity planning! Let's start out with a simple straw poll by replying to this thread. If it's obvious what the favorite activities are then we can keep this easy, but if not, no worries I'm sure we could do some more formal voting with Adam's help.
Here's what I have so far in brainstorming possible activities in the Seattle/Tacoma vicinity. Feel free to add to the list if there's something I've missed. These are in no particular order.
1. Road trip to Mt. Rainier. We could do the Sunrise access, the Paradise access or both in a loop. I'll add some links to some google maps soon.
2. Tacoma area museums. In particular, there is the
LeMay Car Museum. Perhaps we could get a VIP tour. There are also some other world-class museums in Tacoma, check them out
here.
3. Downtown Seattle, Pike Place Market, Seattle waterfront. Parking in downtown will be a consideration, but I'm sure we can figure something out. Could also add in Seattle Center which is where the Space Needle is and the Jimi Hendrix
Experience Music Project.
4. Tour of a Boeing manufacturing facility. I've done no research but I know they have facilities in Renton (in between Tacoma and Seattle) and Everett (north of Seattle)
6. Other drives in the area. In particular there is Port Townsend which is on the other side of Puget Sound, way north, so it could involve a ferry ride one or both ways. (The Tacoma Narrows bridge is the other option)
7. Mark (Cilrah) has also suggested a trip to Classic Reflection Coachworks in Lakewood. They do C1 and C2 conversions on C5 chassis. Mark has talked to them and they would be happy to have us visit.
8. Other stuff folks want to do in the NW part of Washington State???? Let me know!
