Plans for the Holiday Weekend

And I think you'll all enjoy the ideas... Eric and I both have Monday off and I have the horse's care accounted for (who, by the way, was responsible for no hike last week...).

Tentative Plans are as follows:

Saturday:

AM: Amy volunteers at the Seattle Aquarium per usual schedule

PM: Pack and take ferry from Edmonds across to the Olympic Peninsula
Stop in Port Angeles and pick up camping permits, dinner, food?
Drive through Forks and Amy promises to not rig up flame throwers.
Set up camp at Rialto Beach

Sunday:
Pack up camp
Hoh Rainforest and 5 mile island hike along Hoh River
Find food in Forks (SIGH)
Head up to Rialto Beach and set up camp ON the BEACH! Bonus, it's a new moon so stargazing should be spectacular and the weather is supposed to clear in the evening.

Monday:
9:30 am Up and early hike 2 miles to Hole in the Wall along Rialto Beach for low tide fun!
Hike back, pack up car
Drive back up 101, stop at Sol Duc Hot Springs and soak for a few hours (Amy is hoping for a massage too...)
Anticipated long wait for the ferry back home and potential to catch sight of Seattle Fireworks?


So yay! I think I need to get an extra memory card for the camera though, this promises to have lots of awesomeness.
