Travel Day begins with a 45 minute Bus 🚌 ride with a tour of LaConner on the way to the Mount Vernon Amtrak station πŸš‰

Being thrifty is always a great thing, so when the choice was $1.00 for the Bus 🚌 versus $51.00 for an Uber / Lyft, it was a slam dunk decision.

The ride through beautiful LaConner was an added bonus !

11 stops βœ‹οΈ on the ride !

Great way to travel, especially when it’s 8 hours or less.

Tomorrow night πŸŒ™ will  involve a WNBA tilt between Dallas and Portland.

20 minutes from boarding the train πŸš†!

Being ahead $50.00 is the definition of a Great Start !

More 2 follow !!!

All aboard !!!

Everett is behind us now. Next up is the shoreline of Mukilteo – no longer a stop but we get REAL close to the water.

Next Stop βœ‹οΈ, Edmonds

The tracks are within 10 feet of the water

Edmonds is both a train station πŸš‰ and a Ferry ⛴️ boat 🚒… head over to Kingston from here.

**** Taking pics πŸ“Έ out of a moving train πŸš† is a challenge !

40 minutes to Seattle, train is running right on time ( 11:00)

Still very much right on the edge of the Sound.

30-minute stop βœ‹οΈ over at the King Street station πŸš‰ in Seattle is in the Books πŸ“š and we are back at it. The dueling stadiums 🏟 are just to the right.
