Your sister would get along well with my sister! LOL. She has been bugging me about it, too. And HAHAHA I never even mentioned on LJ, but her Christmas present to me? Was a Twilight scrapbook that she'd made, with a $25 gas card so that we could take a road trip to Forks! I don't even know. Actually, my entire family went Twilight crazy at Christmas .. I got trading cards and a keychain from my other sister, and a t-shirt from my Mother. I .... actually kind of liked the movie and find RPattz oddly facinating, but SERIOUSLY PEOPLE they totally missed the memo on what I actually like! heeeee.
Aaaaand, that was a really long blab about Twilight. I feel ashamed.
ANYWAY, all of those plans sound good to me! Uhhh, we all know I am completely incapable of being decisive about what to do, so, yeah. I am all for anything on Thursday ... for being a native to Seattle I am pretty horrible at doing touristy things! I am with Chrissy on taking a ferry -- that would be awesome. I've taken the Seattle --> Bremerton ferry before just for the heck of a ferry ride, and it was fun! It totally depends on the weather, though. If it's pissing rain it's kind of pointless, you know? But if it's not, you get a really amazing view of the city and also the mountains behind it! It's great.If we really wanted to go all out, we could take the ferry that's right near my house, and then drive down through Bainbridge Island and then take the ferry back across to Seattle and do Seattle-stuff. It's about a half hour to forty-five minute drive, I think.
Then again -- just parking and then walking onto the Seattle-Bremerton ferry is nice, too, and then you get more time to just wander around on the deck and take pictures, so, who knows.
Another option if we don't really feel like hitting Seattle at all, is driving north to Anacortes (it's only about an hour north of my place) and taking a ferry out to the San Juan Islands. . I haven't done that since I was a pretty small kid, but my family used to do it all the time right around when I started working a lot and could never go. :/ But I know it's gorgeous and stuff, so I dunno? (If it was a month or so later I'd recommend a whale watching tour or something, but i think mid-march is too early! boo)
If we stay in Seattle I'd love to do the underground tour thing, because derrr, I've never been! Oops.
The rest of it all sounds good to me! Chrissy is right, my birthday is on Friday. Going to the Eatery sounds fantastic!!! So, yeah. And I definitely like the idea of Grouse Mountain and Squamish, so yay!
Also YES TO THE AQUARIUM. I really wanted to go last time, but that line was way the hell too long! LOL.
Anyway, this comment got WAAAAY TOO LONG, but still. SO SOON CANNOT WAIT OMG.
