San Juan Islands

Karen’s Aunt, Uncle, and Cousin came to visit us two weeks ago. The weekend before Father’s day we took a really relaxing trip out to Orca’s Island. The trip started in the Anacortes ferry line. This is where we learned the bed of the truck makes a great play pen for Sara.

The ferry ride was rather magical, especially the rainbows in the various rain showers around the San Juans and other ferries crossing paths.



Once we got to the island it was rather late, but we found a divine restaurant at a place called the Inn at Ship Bay. I had a wonderful duck entree. We stayed at the Rosario resort, and had a nice buffet breakfast, and a swim in the heated pool. Sara liked running around the hotel and exploring various nooks and crannies. On Saturday we visited a craft fair, and Sara explored the flower garden at a local bakery.

On Sunday we took a nice hike to some waterfalls in the Moran state park, and we drove up to the top of Mnt Constitution. The views from up top were amazing. The Freda clan was very impressed with the beauty of the islands.

Of course all good things come to an end, but not before ice-cream is consumed, we had plenty while waiting on our ferry to take us back home.
