We rose very early for a 7:56 transfer by Super Shuttle to LAX airport. Despite warnings of expected heavy holiday traffic we made good time and caught our Alaskan Air flight without any problems. On arrival at Seattle we were met by Emma and Colleen. It soon became clear we would need a very large vehicle to accommodate our 8 passengers and their growing mountain of luggage. Most of the SUVs at Enterprise just had insufficient luggage space. We finally settled for a Chevy Suburban, a huge 4WD with just enough luggage space if we loaded up carefully. Spent the first night at Embassy Suites Hotel not far from the airport.
