Storm Chasing...

After being turned back to Seattle, we decided our best bet was to keep an eye on the weather and try to get a bus as soon as it looked like we might get out rather than spend every waking hour at the bus station. The weather in Seattle has been grey and drizzly but nothing too bad - our problems are with the weather up in the mountain passes where it's snowing a blizzard.

The upside of our being delayed is that we have had more time to spend with Bart, Lauren and Kirsten. We were quite anxious that we didn't disrupt their lives too much - all our trips to Seattle so far have been characterised by us staying longer than we've meant to - but they were good enough to let us come over and spend some more time with their wee family. If we're still in Seattle over the next couple of days, we'll be amusing ourselves - we've already said goodbye twice!

So what next for us? Well, next bus we can get on that's likely to get out of Seattle, we'll try to get on. We may need to sharpen the elbows though - these buses have been stopped for a couple of days now, so there may be some competition for spaces! Hopefully the next update will be from Houston - or at least somewhere outside of the state of Washington.

  • Why don't you just get a plane from Seattle to Houston? That'd negate any snow/weather problems. I'm sure there have been some planes that fly that route - and they'd have flown that route anyway so surely it'd be greener (and more sensible) and more convenient to get on a plane which has 2 spare seats. I think you're just delaying getting to Houston because the prospect of WORK scares you.
