1. What souvenirs did you buy? 2 tshirts from University of Oregon, a sailboat painting (I bargained the guy and got it for $5!), an Annie Leibovitz book from the vintage shop and mon-key rings.
2. What was the can't miss spot on the trip? Oregon! Especially Crater Lake. It was too gorgeous to describe.
3. CD most likely to add to iPod Aly's, I already added it!
4. Place you were most surprised by? Tillamock Cheese Factory. I gave Jamie such a hard time about it and in the end, it was the best icecream of the trip. And Project Vote Smart, it was a beautiful property and a great cause.
5. Place to spend another week in? The entire state of Oregon
6. Cabin vs. yurt vs. teepee? I loved the cabin, but the yurt had the bunk beds!
7. Best meal? The organic sandwich shop in Freemont (Seattle), great sandwich and gold star logo
8. Favorite activity? Kayaking on Lake Union. It was very cool seeing the Space Needle why we were on the water.
9. Road trip advice? plan before you go, seriously
10. Things you wish you had packed more of or had packed at all? Sure Holly, bring 4 pairs of socks, that will last you 3 weeks.
11. The thing(s) you were most glad you packed? I am glad Jamie brought Bananagrams, I glad we brought Lil Mac (for blogging purposes), I was super happy with my dorky (yet practical) camera bag, and all my hoodies. It was cooler than I expect everywhere we went.
12. Worst place we went / most disappointed by? "Big Pine" and the Lapine National Park in Oregon. Seriously, that was the largest ponderosa pine in Oregon? I highly doubt it. Sorry Kelly, but I was also disappointed with the Yakima Walmart. (or maybe just disappointed that we had to go there)
13. Things I learned about myself? I fell in love again with cruise control and found out that I am very afraid of Bison. We saw one in the field and I wouldn't let Jamie walk by it. She read to me in the brochure that you have to stay at least 25 yards away.
14. Things I learned about the other person? Jamie is a walking map. She has a great sense of direction.
15. Looking forward to at home - my own bed
16. Best thing that kept us entertained while driving? umm, each other?! the CDs were great!
Oregon , again seems like the place that made an impact on the trip but I noticed you fail to comment on the TeePee!
ReplyDeletei will tell Jason IMMEDIATELY that crater lake was you and Jamie's favorite part of the trip. (did you guys go to Grand Teton's, the park right below Yellowstone? that's one of my fave places in the US).
ReplyDeleteand i understand about the Yakima wal-mart. but coming from Ellensburg where the best thing is a Fred Meyer (kinda like a Kroger, with clothes) - wal-mart's pretty sweet. it's all about perspective. :)
love ya!
