17 Snohomish County & Washington Holiday Activities for 2011

A Speeding SantaThe holiday day season is upon us and what are your plans for the Holiday season? As you can see I am happily working away looking up awesome activities to do with my family and girlfriend. In 2011 I feel as if I’ve done so much and with one month left there is still time to add a few more activities to the wrap sheet.

Though we all don’t celebrate the holidays in the same fashion we can all at least find something to do when the weather is chilly. Below is a list of 17 activities, even if you don’t celebrate Christmas, that you can enjoy a holiday and even fit in a party or two. One of the highlights is Alki Tours’ Snow Train to Leavonworth. How fun would that be to trek through the Cascades on a weekend trip to Leavonworth. Trains, sightseeing, beer, bratwurst, and don’t forget the loved ones!
