Road Trip – Omaha to Seattle – Day 11 – NCNP-Seattle – September 21, 2010

Got up around 9ish today and had the continental breakfast, which was basically a room with a fridge and some food set out, and guests could come and take whatever they wanted to make. I had an english muffin with peanut butter and jelly, a small cinnamon roll, and a hard boiled egg. After that we hit the road to get Paddy back to the Sea-Tac airport for his flight. Said our goodbyes and felt bad he didn't get to stay longer with us, but we moved on. Tom and I headed back up I-5 towards Canada to see if we could get in and visit Vancouver for the day and night.
We were denied entry. I should say, I was. I have a small blip on my criminal history from 2000, and I need to apply for “rehabilitation” in Canada before they let me into their country. But, we were prepared for it, so we just headed back down to Seattle for the night. Not a whole lot of action during the day for us, just a lot of driving up and down the 5. Got back into Seattle, grabbed a motel 6 by the airport, and went into downtown to take some photos of the downtown skyline at night, and the football stadium. They look like they came out really cool, so I'm pretty excited for those. After that, I was pretty beat, but we stopped for a beer and a game of pool before we headed back to the hotel. I talked to Beth on the phone for about a half hour and wrapped it up and went to bed.
