Our trip to Seattle & Victoria Canada

Our first trip with Landon on a plane went smooth. For those of you who don't know, Lam likes to travel and I could really careless unless it was a fishing trip of some sort. Our last trip according to her was our Honeymoon. So I guess we're overdue, she wanted to go to Hawaii or NY. I knew the lil turd couldn't handle a flight that long so I came up with Seattle and Canada. Since my parents did this same trip 10 years ago, they told us it's a nice trip and relaxing and it's a pretty short air flight to Seattle. We ended up booking the trip and Lam did all the planning and reservations. She did an awesome job, everything she picked was perfect. If you have kids that still use the stroller or if you are in use of a wheelchair, I would reconsider Victoria. They have very feel wheelchair access ramps, most of the wheelchair access areas were those mini elevators. Other than that, everything went well and we all had fun. So much fun, Lam said we don't have to go on another trip for 3 more years! After the last picture of this post, I'll have a hyperlink for the full album of our trip. These are just a few pictures from our trip.

Landon's first time on the plan was perfect, we left OC at noon and as we were taking off he feel asleep till we landed 2.5 hours later!

Try sticking to credit cards when going to Canada, most places will not do the currency conversion ratio, and only give you dollar to dollar and you'll also get stuck with this crap.

Here's a picture of the inside of the ferry that we took from Anacortes to Victoria. This only 1/4 of the ferry, this thing looks like it can hold over 300 passengers and maybe 60 cars. The trip from Anacortes to Victoria was 3 hours, you get to go through all the islands and it's smooth & very relaxing ride. The ride back only takes about 2 hours, though ours took a little longer because we hit some fog on the way back home.

This is a shot from the Space Needle, from what the waiter told me this is a tugboat, and normally they don't spray water like that, he's just showing off. Still pretty cool looking.

One of my pet peeves are those damn automatic paper towel dispensers, that only give you a short piece of paper towel to dry your hands. So you end up waving your damn hand in front of the stupid sensor like 5 times, and of course you have to wait forever for it to recognize your movement, by that time the water has probably already dried. As you can see in this picture, Canada has no problems giving out a pretty decent size paper towel, I was quiet please with this!

Victoria has their own version of China Town, but you know it's not a REAL China Town if you're missing the homeless, trash in the streets, old Chinese dude playing that strange looking violin, and of course the smell of funk! Victoria's China Town consisted of maybe one block.... again, not a real China Town.

While Lam was changing Landon's diapers she realized as she was taking off his shorts that he took a dump. So she had to grab the closest thing on the bed to use as a changing mat. Seattle's Saturday newspaper is now on Landon's butt cheeks.
