I'm very familiar with Seattle because I spent much of my life just across the border in southwestern British Columbia. A drive to Seattle used to be fun before the I-5 became a slow-moving parking lot. (However, I have a different route and can bypass much of it when going down to watch our Toronto Blue Jays play baseball.) Now I am inspired to check out a map of Washington State as well as a map of your Peloponnese. Thanks for the inspiration!<br />Kay<br />An Unfittie's Guide to Adventurous TravelKay L.
