Our trip to San Juan Island







Henry & I were able to get away for an overnight trip to San Juan Island. The weather was beautiful - somewhat cooler at times than the mainland - but the weekend really was perfect. We had a gift certificate to use at Anthony's - one of our favorite restaurants and then we went on to Anacortes. We stayed in a tiny little hotel room - Captain's Cabin - and in the morning took the ferry to Friday Harbor. We rented mopeds to tour the island. We spent time watching numerous orcas playing in the water - they put on quite the show!! By 5:00 we had toured the entire island, stopping whenever we liked what we saw. When we arrived home we had enough time to unpack & spend a bit of time preparing for my cousin's family from Ontario who will be using our driveway as a camping "pad" for a few days. Lots of summer fun!
