Travel pictures
After a conference in Seattle I drove Oregon and Washington, a new area for me in the US. I started around Olympic peninsula with tall mountains and semi-rain forests, before a magnificent stroll along the spectacular Oregon coast. I visited giant trees in Redwood NP, extinct volcanoes including Crater Lake and more active volcanoes and hot spring around Mt. St. Helens. On the way I enjoyed probably the world's best craft beer scene before ending around Colombia River Gorge and paying a visit to Timberline Lodge, known from "The Shining". Speaking about horror, I also visited the vampire area known from Twilight.
