you know, I'm surprised I haven't met more people on vacation from Seattle here in Florida, come to think of it, I can't remember a single one. I've met people from just about everywhere else in the country though. :neutral:

I would think a nice sunny Florida vacation would be on top of every Seattle residents list of things to do.

I think the people from Washington travel down to California or Mexico for their vacations since it is closer. I went to college in California and I swear that half of the student body population at my school were from Washington! It was crazy!

That makes sense. I forgot all about California.

I wonder which place gets more sun, California or Florida.

I'm not sure. I have a feeling it is Florida that gets more sun. I mean isn't it called "The Sunshine State"?

I think California is just closer for Washingtonians.

Salmon - A 3.5-ounce serving of wild salmon has 360 IU, or 90 percent of the recommended daily value of vitamin
Cereal - Healthy cereal that is... probably not the Cookie Crisp. One cup of fortified breakfast cereal has 40 IU, or 10 percent of the recommended daily value of vitamin D
Milk - One cup of fortified milk contains 98 IU, or about 25 percent of the recommended daily value of vitamin D
Eggs - one egg yolk has 20 IU, about 6 percent of your daily value of vitamin D
Swiss Cheese - A slice of Swiss cheese contains about 12 IU, which is 4 percent of your daily value of vitamin D
Shrimp - A 3-ounce serving of shrimp also has 129 IU, about 32 percent of your daily value of vitamin D
Oysters - For 3 ounces you get 272 IU, or 68 percent your recommended daily value of vitamin D
Fortified OJ - A cup of fortified orange juice contains about 100 IU or 25 percent of your recommended daily value of vitamin D
Canned Tuna - 3 ounces of canned tuna in oil has 200 IU or 50 percent of your recommended daily value of vitamin D
Cod Liver Oil - A tablespoon of this natural supplement has 1,360 IU, or 340 percent of your daily value of vitamin D
