| I developed this theme for the Pacific Northwest for many reasons, but mostly to satisfy my desires to discover all there is to discover about a city. Every city has a space needle, water tour, monument, famous house, special city tour or even a unique type of street. Have you heard the saying "Been there, done that", okay it isn't quite that easy to explain, but it opens ones eyes to the other side of tourism. There are other reasons, we have the most diverse and most beautiful region in North America, from Portland to Vancouver, B.C. the cities and islands in between are all ready to be explored in more depth.
