Camping in Olympic State Park

This is the last post about my Seattle Trip, so I will round this trip up with the Camping Part, but before I go on with the post, I want to thank my aunt and uncle for showing me the beautiful place. I will definately be back to ski in the winter time. Alright fellas, when you think of camping, usually the first figure comes to mind is tents, fire, wild place, animals, no technology and such. Well this is more civilized camping. The Olympic State Park actually have spaces for tents, or R/Vs. My uncle owns a R/V which gave us fun of both worlds. We had heater, beds, dvd player, kitchen and everything that you want in the modern world, and we get to see the outside and hike which connects you to the nature.

This R/V had 2 full bed and 1 queen bed, bathroom, refrigerator, kitchen area, tv and all the good stuff. Also this place had a 3.5 mile hike and about a 2 mile hike. My uncle couldn’t walk alot therefore we went on a 2 mile hike. We did start a fire one night and I enjoyed every single bit of it.

Check out the pictures below.

Trip to Olympic Mountains in Washington

Alright this is one of the other aventures that I did while I was in Washington State. I visited Olympic Mountains. I have never seen mountains fill with snow, so this was first time in my life. It was pretty cool except for the fact that my ears were popping while the altitude was increasing. This place had a pretty nice museum. The mountains were filled with trees and it was like a jungle where you can find black tailed deer, cougar, bear and many other animals. I saw a deer and before I could take a picture, it ran away. The guide there said “I have never seen a Cougar here in 35 years that I have been here, but I am sure they have seen me”. These animals really dont like to come out in front of people, so they are not out during the daytime. Although that one deer did. On the way to this mountains, I got some great shots which I think I can use in my future designs :P I saw ice melting from the mountain, so there were temporary waterfalls all over the place.

Even though a picture speaks a thousand word, I think a video gives more insight and shows more excitement. Watch the video and check out the cool time I had.

Now I am getting ready to head over to Adtech Miami

Private Waterfall in Seattle and some aliens looking to hunt me

Alright now this is what I want to get when I get rich before I buy my own Island. A private 120 feet or higher waterfall that runs every day. I don’t know who owns this one, but some one already have what I want. Actually I want a one like Niagra Falls where you can go behind the fall, and I want to have wireless internet there. I mean that would be a sweet work place. I can make some really creative designs there :P

Anyways lets go on to see how this waterfall looks

and no these are not photoshop effects.

Well I think I might be able to get this type of waterfall some day :P

I also made a video so check it out.

If you guys want to know where this is then dont ask me the exact address but I can give you the directions. First find out where Olympic State Park is in Washington. It is off Highway 101 somewhere, but once you know where that is go to a lady in there and ask her and she will tell you. LOL.

Home Sweet Home

Hey fellow users,

I know this blog wasn’t updated yesterday well because I was camping in the morning, so no WiFi and I was in the plane for the other time. I just got home and thought I should update you guys. I know you guys missed me :P Ah well I missed all of you guys and missed writing on the blog. Thank you Amanda for writing a guest blog post.

Well I will tell you what I did on my break in Seattle.

Trip to Microsoft’s World Headquarters in Redmond
Trip to Olympic Mountains
Camping in Olympic State Park
Watch a Private 120 feet waterfall

I have already written about Microsoft, and posted those pictures and I will try to get the other pictures and movies uploaded soon which means tommorrow. Ofcourse you know tommorrow is the only day I can do it because I will be heading to Adtech Exhibits on June 4th. (If you are there and you see me give me a bump) So not much rest eh. I have already sent out an email to Pimp My Blog Winner, and that person have 24 hours to reply back otherwise a new winner will be selected. Mostly people reply back…

My flights were good and a bit late. I am exhausted from the trip. I got a Verizon XV6700 which is a phone / PDA so that is a good deal for me. I am going to catch up on my sleep and keep you guys updated. The mini-contest winner will be announced by tommorrow also. There is also a surprise contest coming up so keep your eyes open because this one will be a good one :)

MAQ T20 – Updates and results

MAQ T20 came to an end on Sunday, but I didn’t get a chance to update the blog due to my flight in Seattle and I didn’t have the pictures when I arrived. But now that I have them, I am going to put it up. Well Pakistani Team led by Jawaid Miandad didn’t do so well, and didn’t even make the finals. Neither did the World XI Team led by Azhard Uddin made to the finals. Two teams that made to the finals were West Indies and Canada. West Indies was being led by famous batsman Richie Richardson, and I have no clue about Canadian team because I saw them for the first time, but they were my favorite. I wanted them to win the finals, but West Indies took the lead and won the finals. I wasn’t there on the finals day because I was in the plane to Seattle.

I have taken a few autographs of Azhar Uddin, Richie Richardson on the 4 / 6 signs, so if any one wants to buy it contact me. I also have the bat signed with all superstars that I liked which includes Azharuddin, Miandad, Imran Nazir and all the others. This bat was the bat which Imran Farhat played with. I am not selling this one :P I don’t have a picture of this one as this is at my house in West Palm Beach. I will put the picture up when I get home.

I had all access. I worked at the desk for a few minutes then I had to take care of the weak security. I loved every bit of it.

Below are some of my pictures with superstars.

Me and Faisal Iqbal

This is Faisal Iqbal the captain of PIA Team and is a pakistani international team player.

Maq Cake

This cake was delicious and pretty.

I have videos of the suite which I will put up later on because They still need some editing in it and conversion of the format.

Visit Cricketcouncilusa.com for more updates on the tournament and their next events. Thanks MAQ Group for providing me with a pass.
