If you get COVID, get a PCR test so you can have a "recovery certificate". Basically good for 6 months, it may be useful bypassing certain testing requirements. My wife got randomly selected for the COVID arrival test too but was able to use that exception to get out of it since she got a positive PCR test at work last month (Antigen tests probably won't work, has to be molecular). Has to be at least 11 days old and up to 180 days.
That’s great. Love that drive and the Gondola. Not sure if I have made it to the falls before. I thought Whistler was kind of meh. Sounds like the trip was a success
That Port Angeles get can be very choppy. The Bainbridge ferry is really nothing. As for proposal spot, consider Kerry Park in Seattle. Also consider having a photographer on standby. This is a frequent spot for pics and proposals. link other options in this link
Has anyone been to Banff? We're planning a trip to Yellowstone and are considering adding Banff to that journey. Thanks.
I've been twice when I was a kid/teen. Its totally worth it. We did it once on a Yellowstone trip as well and another one separately.
This is what we ended up booking, very reasonable. Going to call them this afternoon when I'm not with the gf to see what kind of engagement hookup they can provide. Thanks again.
I hope it is as good as I remember (it's been a few years). It was a good place to sit on the balcony with a beer and watch the boats and float planes come and go. Plus the room was outstanding. Anyway, enjoy yourself..........................and hope she says "yes"! Edit: My wife reminded me that we not only saw a guy propose to his girlfriend sitting on that balcony, a day or two later another couple had a small wedding on the property (just the couple and the officiant). So Laurel Point is probably all in on that kind of stuff.
Just did a short trip to southern oregon. Yeah we planned it before the forecast came out, it was 112 yesterday. We went to Crater Lake , then a night in Roseburg and hit the Wildlife Safari first thing as they opened then back to the Oregon Vortex and a drive home. The Wildlife safari was great, if you have kids a great trip. The Vortex was interesting, but would have been better it if hadn't been so hot.
The weather is perfect and we got an upgraded room at the Inn at Laural Point. Excellent recommendation by UCD. We have been watching the seaplanes come in and out. Perfect day!!
You should propose again once you get back over the border just to make sure you're engaged in both countries.
I told her we're going straight to the courthouse when we get back to Oregon. I gotta lock it down before she changes her mind!
