|This trip began July 8th 2006 in Williamsburg, VA. I went to

|we took the Capitol Ltd. from D.C. to Chicago coach class. In Chicago
|we boarded the superliner Empire Builder where we had a bedroom for
|the trip across the northern Great Plains and through the Rockies to
|Seattle. We rented a car in Seattle and drove to Port Angeles (WA) on
|the Olympic Peninsula, directly across the Strait of Juan de Fuca from
|Victoria on the island of Vancouver, BC, Canada. We spent time with
|Laureen and Larry in Port Angeles who took us up into the Olympic
|Mountains; to the bleak but gorgeous western coast of Washington and
|via Ferry to the beautiful Canadian city of Victoria. The trip was
|about 11 days altogether.

|website etc. My regular website is already full, so I set up a new
|website for these pix. I finally got ALL my pictures from the trip up
|(except the ones with me in them!) from our trip to the Pacific
|Northwest. I haven't written the travelogue to go with it yet, that's
|for another day. But the pix are in logical order and all with a
|descriptive caption. It's a start; I'll finish the website another
|day.

|Hope you enjoy!

Oops -- I posted this to the wrong NG by mistake! It was meant for
alt.support.diet.low-carb.

Oh well, I hope somebody enjoys the pictures anyway!

Well, actually, as I'm another wanderer, I did. Nice pics,
interesting trip. I enjoy the train trips, but they do take
more time:-)

I'm also trying to work out how to do much the same thing
with maps and photos for my own trip. Could you give some
advice, on or off group, on how you did the map and set up
the page and photos - or a link to a site that explains it.
I'll still be on loral@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx for a few days yet.

TIA

PS My little bit in the USA related to your Amtrak trip was
NYC Penn Station to Buffalo Depew, car in a loop
Albany-Boston-Montreal-Toronto-Buffalo and then plane
Buffalo-Chicago-LA-Honolulu.
