After taking the EB from Chicago to Seattle in April and again this month, I have not had enough! I think I've talked my husband into something I can tell you guys, but will not tell our friends or family (they'll think we're nuts.) The bucket price for EB to Portland is only $229 the last of February. Since we've already done all the sightseeing in Portland and Seattle, I'm not interested in that. But I DO want to take EB again, only the Portland route. AND, stay over only one night in Portland, and turn around and come back.
I just asked on a different post how many miles we follow the Columbia River on the way to Spokane. My only "worry" now is to make sure there will be enough daylight in late February, either coming or going, to take advantage of the view along the Columbia.
After this trip we have another already booked for early May.......a Chicago to L.A. on the Chief, the drive along the coast to San Francisco, and the Zephyr back to Chicago. That means 4 long distance trips in one year......I'm excited!
