Though only 20 minutes late, we arrived in Bellingham, Washington in
time to see our Amtrak Cascade train pulling out of the station.
We knew that this would be a tight connection. So we quickly
made alternative arrangements and rode a shuttle bus into Seattle.
We still had 3 hrs before we had to catch our Amtrak train, so we used
that time to take a city trolley to the aquarium.
