An action-packed day combines the loveliest sights of the Pacific Northwest. Begin with a scenic train trip to Bellingham on the Amtrak Cascades. Then indulge in a "split-your-pants-sized" brunch at Chuckanut Manor. Ten pounds and a few patches later, we're off by motorcoach to see the Skagit Valley Tulip Festival. See the gardens and bulb farms in all their splendor. You'll have time to buy flowers and bulbs so that you can turn your garden into the envy of the neighborhood.
