    My daily routine is finishing up work, fixing dinner and then watching the new TCB video. As someone who cannot travel, thank you for taking us along on your adventures. The train trip has definitely been one of my recent favorite "road trips". Be safe and have a great rest of the journey!

I also love getting the ferry as a foot passenger over to Bremerton for a few hours walk around - I actually saw a humpback whale in the Sound last May. Loving your train trip and seeing your pure joy of being onboard!

    I recently ran into your channel and I'm really enjoying this trip. After you reach Chicago I'm going to watch your other vids. I plan on riding the Empire builder soon. I'm a recent widow so I'm trying to learn to navigate solo travel. I find that I have developed social anxiety which is new for me. I do ok traveling solo but when you said you didn't remember where to find the monorail my heart dropped. If I know exactly where I'm going I'm good but if I had to ask someone for directions or help I would be too mortified to speak. Hopefully your vids will help me in that dpt. Safe travels!

    • @knottynumbers44
      @knottynumbers44 10 днів тому +3

      Good for you for pursuing solo travel, I hope you love it! As a longtime solo, my tip for you is to get familiar with Google maps. Go to the downtown in your area or the nearest big city you're comfortable in, and use google maps to help you get to different landmarks by using the different icons for walking, car, bus, etc. That way you know how it works and the same will apply for any city/town you end up in. I've used it all over the world and its very reliable. I used to have to bring maps and ask people for directions, and that is so rare these days. Good luck and best wishes to you.

    A lot of things to do there. Love the monorail. There was a cool, amusement park below the space needle. I don't see it on google maps anymore. 😕 Another victim of the economy or something? Took the ferry to Bremerton on our way south which was awesome! I got a break from driving and we were on the water. Next time visit; "Ivars Fish Bar" if you haven't already. The fast food of sea food. There may better of it's kind but it's an institution. Next to pier 54. Cheers. 👍

    I was in Seattle in 1968 with my mom and grandparents. They took turns driving from South Central PA to get there. We did the boat ride to see the Naval ships. My grandmother slipped and fell walking down the gang plank. I grabbed her purse and saved it from falling in the water. However, I stood there twirling her purse around. She yelled, get my purse away from her. All our money is in there.

    Jacob I’ve been watching you since literally the yard sale days lol. I think even prior to that I’m an OG bagger and this series of the train rides has been very interesting and really enjoyable. I think these videos have been something completely different than your norm because it caused you too slow down so we’ve seen things you may have not done otherwise. Usually you have your car and you’re on a set mission. But this has forced you to have no car which has forced you to slow down. So seeing these things in these city’s that you’ve never done before has been really awesome. I think you should do more of this.

    If the weather is rough at all, do NOT take one. Because of the way they are constructed you get a LOT of movement and even if you're not normally prone to seasickness, that could easily change.

    Jacob, when you come back, take your car on the ferry to Bainbridge Island. It's about 30 minute ride and a sweet town and area to explore. Then drive to Bremerton. There is a cool museum right near the ferry terminal you might enjoy. The ferry ride back to Seattle is about an hour, but the scenery is different, and when it makes the turn aiming to Seattle, you get some beautiful views of the city! Hopefully, the mountain (Mt. Rainier) will be out for you again!
    Fun fact about The Edgewater. The Beatles stayed there the first time they came to Seattle. One of them tried fishing out the window! I'm sure someone can help with the year and who did the fishing.
    I hope while you were in town you got to see the city at night. It is absolutely beautiful all lit up!! My favorite city!! ❤

    The 145 ft. Giant Wheel at Cedar Point in Sandusky, Ohio is a must ride. A true "bucket-lister!"

    The Texas Star Ferris Wheel in Dallas is one you should ride with Jen.
