From Seattle to Spokane, I have to say this was the longest drive so far...for me anyway. I don't know if it really was, but it sure felt like it. We did stop for an hour or so for lunch and to let the boys run around, but it was LONG. After setting up camp we thought we go check out downtown Spokane. My Mom had told me about a merry go round that was really old and we saw a cool waterfall on our way to camp.
Right outside the parking garage there was a trail of metal runner art so I struck a running pose to warm up for my half marathon in two days!
We headed to the merry go round. It was another bargain night, $1 rides on Friday nights. Way cool. This carousel was build in 1909 with very ornate horses. This ride was much faster than the one in Seattle, but Gannon still loved it and did great. Even rode a second time.
The waterfall in from the river in downtown is amazing. Dave and I could have stared at it for a long time, but it was a quick glimpse with the monkey's. Beautiful view.
We walked through the Riverfront Park and found a HUGE radio flyer wagon that had a ladder in the back and the handle was the slide. It was so much fun and the boys were sad to leave, but for dinner they were ready.
We had dinner at a local pasta place for me to start my carbing for the half and the food was awesome! We kinda wished we would have had another night and day in Spokane to explore, but we needed to get to Montana for my run.
