Back Home


Okay, we have been home for awhile; finally our time at the San Juan Islands. All of the pictures are above, so feel free to take a look. We had a great time camping, hiking, and even fishing. British Camp had some beautiful buildings remaining from the Pig War with a great garden. From there we hiked about two miles and got some great shots of the surrounding islands and Canada. Only one building stood on the American side, but there were some beautiful beaches.
The doctor we had to visit for my first daughter (coughing very hard and not breathing well) was very nice and informed us she would be just fine; run of the mill virus. Went whale watching and saw a nice family and two large males. (Orcas, Killer Whales)
While waiting for the ferry home we had some great fish and chips, and some homemade candy. Beautiful sunset on the way home and a peaceful end to a good trip.
My overall conclusion is Friday Harbor is a great and beautiful place to visit. Two days was plenty for me (I was developing a severe case of island fever), and I think it would be perfect for just about everyone. Check out the sights and get back on that ferry home.
Talk soon.
