Day 11: Sunday 9th September 2012 - Lake Crescent to Seattle

Starting the journey back.

From Lake Crescent it is a fairly short journey to Port Angeles. From here you can see across the water to Canada. With more time we would have gone up to Hurricane Ridge from here to see views across the mountains. I'm sad we didn't get chance to do this. 






The route to Seattle involves crossing a number of bridges over the broken coastline and estuaries and then a ferry ride.  I love the water so it was fun to travel this route. The line for the ferry is quite long and it probably took us about half an hour of waiting. I would highly recommend the creperie just before the ticket gate. They had some wonderful selections all cooked to order in front of you.











With time being short in Seattle, we decided the best place to head would be the Space Needle. We spent a long time up at the top admiring the amazing view of the city and coast. We were particularly fascinated by the seaplanes which come by your view every few minutes.











Saying goodbye to Seattle and facing the end of our journey was hard. We'd had an amazing adventure and seen so many diverse places. The trip counter when we gave the car back read 1910.7 miles. Time to head to the airport terminal and then home.
