Thursday Thirteen:
things I'm most excited about for my upcoming seattle/alaska vacation

Thursday Thirteen is a weekly meme with a simple theme: each Thursday you blog a list of 13 things. What kind of things? Any kind! Just come up with a list theme and run with it.
1. My first freaking cruise, man - yeah! and I get to share it with my family who I get entirely too little quality time with
2. Eat fish and chips from Ivar's Seafood - enough said. I've never had bad fish and chips, but I've been told that they're the best at Ivar's
3. Go to the Chittenden Locks - just sounds way too cool not to watch the salmon run for a while and see the boats be lifted into the locks
4. Take the ferry to Bainbridge Island - why? I've been on ferry's, yeah. I just picture this ride and Bainbridge being significant to Seattle culture
5. Zip lining in Juneau, Alaska - can't resist a good adrenaline rush
6. Drinking some beers - trying every new beer I come across. challenge accepted.
7. Look down from the top of the Space Needle - duh...it's Seattle
8. Checking out the EMP Museum - they currently have a Hendrix and a Nirvana exhibit among others
9. Washington cherries and fresh salmon - foodgasim starting now
10. I better see some whales and meet some hunky Alaskan fishermen to get a picture with - really?
11. Getting another stamp on the passport when we get to Victoria Island, BC
12. While I'm there visiting the Butchart Gardens - oooh, purties
13. The look on my family's face when they see me in Charlotte at the airport and realize that we get to all fly out to the west coast together (they're leaving from Columbus, OH and I'm leaving from Wilmington, NC but we have the same connector flight out of CLT) - priceless, especially considering that my Dad and my brothers have never flown before
