The Birds and The Bees...

Good Evening! Last night the moon was shining bright and if you noticed there was a particularly bright star next to it, that was Jupiter! Had a great time looking up at the stars last night. This morning was a little more relaxed than our previous days. We woke up this morning and stopped at a local auto shop to get quick tune up on the car before we head into Canada! After that we were making our way up through Seattle and I kid you not, I have never seen Adam jump across two lanes of traffic so fast to get off the interstate. All because he saw a sign for Red Robin! Can you guess where we had lunch? You guessed it! Red Robin! One of our favorite places to eat so that was fun! I think the to-go cup they offered Adam for his freckled lemonade made his day...its the simple pleasures in life that mean the most. ;) After eating way too much we sluggishly made way back to car and continued north through Seattle. It was only about a 2-hour drive to where we were headed but it was 88 degrees outside and we have no AC! We were sweating quite profusely to say the least. We found a campsite right on a bay near Mount Vernon and then decided to head back into town for their Tulip Festival. Every April they have fields upon fields of blooming flowers and it was gorgeous. Below are some pictures from our trip to a tulip farm and we had fun being amateur (pronounced Ama-tour) photographers....someone thinks they are already on a professional photographer level (cough, cough, Adam Popanz) but we sure did manage to capture some amazing photographs. If you were a little confused on the blog title let us state for clarification that the bird stands for Red Robin and the bees has to do with the tulip fields and all the flowers.

Tomorrow our one and only goal is to make it over the border into Canada. Our cellphones will be turned off because we do not have international calling so if you need to reach us please use email or facebook and we will try to check it every day when we can get some wifi. We will try to keep the blog updated as much as possible in the meantime. We expect to take anywhere from 6-8 days driving through Canada, just depends on which campgrounds are open this time of year. Wish us luck! See ya America! Hello Canada!
