We are for sure flying into Seattle this summer and I have 1 night booked near Hurricane Ridge in Olympic National Park and 2 nights on the coast (Kalolach Lodge) to visit other parts of Olympic National Park. Those things are all set and I have pretty good ideas for those days (always open to any personal "must dos"). I haven't booked our flights yet because I have 3 itinerary options and dh is being no help deciding between them.
1. Just return to Seattle. Plenty to see as we won't be there too long before we head to ONP at the beginning.
2. Hit Mt. Rainier on the way back to Seattle.
3. Head to Columbia River Gorge (Multnomah Falls look amazing!) and then spend a day or 2 in Portland and fly out of Portland.
I worked out all the mileage and such. We're used to long road trips so these amounts are fine. I wish we had more time to continue down to San Francisco but teenagers are darned busy in the summer!
Any opinions? I really want to start nailing everything down!
