Back in Seattle!

Hi!
Let me start off with what happened after I last blogged. We took a flight from Christchurch to Singapore which departed at 10:50 AM and arrived at 5:40 PM in Singapore. We then took a flight to Hong Kong airport at 5:50 PM  which arrived there at 9:35 PM (SQ 2). We had to run between gates at Singapore. From Hong Kong we took a flight to San Francisco at 10:45 PM which arrived at 8:25 PM (SQ 2). Our last flight was from San Francisco to Seattle at 10:33 PM which arrived in Seattle at 12:30 AM (UA 351). I am happy to be back in Seattle, but sad that we don't get to visit any more places and learn more about plate tectonics. Plate tectonics sound boring on paper or on a computer screen and are way better to learn about by actually visiting the places. There is even some plate tectonic activity going on near Seattle. The Cascade range in Washington state is caused by plate subduction. I will end my travel blog with an image of Mt. Rainier:
