On Day 8 we left Vancouver and Ramin's parents and headed back down to Washington. First stop was North Cascades National Park!
This is the old power generator station at the bottom of the park.
Spectacular view!
We then took a ferry ride over from Seattle over to the western peninsula and made our way into Olympic National Park. Lake Crescent is BY FAR the MOST beautiful lake both Ramin and I have EVER seen!! Seriously!
Ramin at Lake Crescent. No joke, those colors are REAL and so beautiful!!
We made our way down to the Hoh Rain Forest and took our obligatory sign picture!
Yes, we did drive through Forks (where Twilight was set), and no it wasn't anything like the movie (which I knew it wouldn't be because most the movies weren't even filmed there! :P)
The Hall of Mosses trail was probably one of my favorite trails because I had been wanting to go there for some time. It was very peaceful in there and just awesome!
Want some moss?
Can you see the elk?
Cool natural arch!
Roots and moss everywhere!
Inside a hollowed out tree stump...
Underneath the roots!
Here I am underneath some roots.
This gives you some perspective of how tall those trees are. This one had fallen down. And where Ramin was standing wasn't even the end of it! You can see me way off in the distance!
Even the telephone booth (with no phone) had moss on it
Yep, we drove down Highway 101 after leaving Olympic National Park - and we did see the Pacific Ocean
