I don't know much about the sci fi sites in Washington, but my trip into British Columbia was WAY too short. The people were great, the sights were amazing. I really loved mountain biking on south mountain, Whistler was really cool (although their bike park wasn't open yet) and Victoria on Vancouver Island is a blast. Its more "victorian" than London. Great inspiration for a steampunk game.
I hope you enjoy your trip!
Oh yeah about the Nor Cal section... There is a great micro brewery in Ft Bragg, a kick ass ice creme shop in Mendocino's tourist area (I can't remember what its called) and do not forget Bodega Bay where the movie "The Birds" was filmed. Don't eat at the Tides restaurant, there is a little shack outside of the restaurant that is cheaper and has better food. Pt Arena light house is cool and Pt Reyes is a neat section of coast.

Hi there,
tomorrow I will leave my home country Germany on a holiday trip to Canada and the US. Starting in Vancouver my friends and we will travel to Seattle and drive down to San Francisco. All in all our trip will take three weeks and I think that is plenty of time to sightsee some "special interest" sites.
My friends are not into gaming/SF/F at all but I would love to hear some suggestions for shops, museums, historical sights, etc.
So were should I go to? Is the Science Fiction Museum in Seattle any good?
I liked the SciFi museum, although honestly, I was far more interested in the Experience Music Project that shares the building with it. However, for the ticket price you get access to both and it is a good days occupation.
