Travel in 2021

I am looking forward to do some traveling
in 2021. I hoping the vaccine will take place
soon. Until I do I will be looking to do more
traveling around my home state of Washington.

I know there will be some who won't want to
take the vaccine. I know the decision won't be
easy and everyone should have the choice to
or not to take the vaccine.

The problem though there will be those who
will make the decision for us. There is a good
chance if you want to travel especially out of
the USA or your home country. Passports or 
countries likely will require proof of taking
the vaccine.

The trouble I have with that is taking the choice
out of the hands of people. Even the bigger 
problem is some people will have trouble taking
the vaccine. Other words, they may have bad
reaction from the vaccine. Should those people
be banned from traveling.

On Tuesday this week I took a drive south down
toward Mt. Saint Helens I didn't drive all the way
to the mountain. In fact, I wasn't able to see the
mountain. Not sure whether it because it was a
cloudy day.

The visitor center near by the Toutle River was
closed. Even if it had been opened I wasn't really
impressed. I thought they would have a better 
center than that. When opened could have good
information for visitors, however, I didn't think
this would be the case.

I didn't take any pictures  in the area. I hope to
next time I go down to that area. Interstate 5 
doesn't have the exit very clear so you would
want to take exit 49 at Castle Rock then head
east. Information on my phone says it is about
1 hour 40 minute drive to Mt. Saint Helen's.

My next I am going north on highway 16 where
I live in Gig Harbor Washing for Port Angeles
Washington. It is about a 90 minute drive. I am 
planning go to Crescent Bay. I have never been
there though I have been to Port Angeles quite
a few times. 

Crescent Bay is only a few minutes West from
Port Angeles. I am told you can see Victoria 
British Columbia on a nice day. I will let you
know whether that is true. Also, you can visit
Crescent Lake which is a beautiful lake about
20 miles going west. It is near the beginning
of Olympic National Park. Nice drive going
along the lake.
