I am in Seattle. I have ridden to Portland, Astoria, and Olympia on a proper pedal bike from Seattle and now I am back. This city seems alright, as far as cities go. It is not as ridiculous as Portland, where the liquor stores close at five and nothing is open on a Sunday. There are a lot of lame ass hipsters here, and they can be frustrating, but as far as cities go it seems alright. I will be stoked to get on the road.
Being on the road is nice. It is hard. It is important not to feel soft. Korea made me feel soft in a lot of ways. I love Jeju, and will always love that place, but island living is easy and it is good to be doing something hard.
I have seen three bald eagles since I embarked on the trip. That is pretty cool. I have also taken roads that in retrospect I probably should not have, given that they were steep unpaved primitive roads with big logging trucks on them, but I am glad that I did. I saw some beautiful parts of Oregon and Washington State that I never would have seen otherwise.
I will update this and add photos when I can.
