This is the view out the front of our motor home at our campsite! (don't miss the mountain peaks behind the ship:-) It's the Bay of Townsend that leads into the Pacific Ocean. Wonder if that cruise ship is heading to Alaska. There's a port here that has a ferry that goes to an island on the other side. You can see the land in the picture and we realized that is where we plan to drive to tomorrow. We checked out the cost to ferry us across and found out that the fare would be less than the drive of 250 miles to get there. Besides...we could avoid driving through Seattle. That will give us more time to spend around Bellingham, where we will catch the ferry on Friday to finally head to Alaska. So this is how our day ended....a campsite on the water, ships cruising by and the sun going down. Now let me tell and show you how our day started :-)
Words cannot describe the beauty of the ocean...
it's easy to understand why people are so drawn to it.
Trees are gigantic here! Not as wide as the some of the Redwoods of California; but they must compare in height. They sure make you feel small next to them. I have seen wooden bowls made out of burls that grow on trees...can you imagine the size of the salad that would be in this bowl made from these burls?
If you like driftwood....this is driftwood heaven! Along the way we saw shops with sculptures of animals and other things that were made out of driftwood that was very creative. Even the roots were used to make some very interesting and artistic,creations....none of which would fit in the motor home.
Dueling Cameras:-)
Had to throw this photo in...
do you think this trailer belongs to a Packer fan?
So....the day ended as well as it began. Tomorrow we will load the motor home on a ferry like the one in this picture and be
on our way to Bellingham.
on our way to Bellingham.
