Travels to the USA

It is easier to blog then do emails. So here we go. Hope you enjoy the ride. 
We caught the ferry, Chelan, from Sidney to Anacortes Sunday at dinner time. Not quite as classy as the BC ferries but it got us there 30 minutes late. Check out our on board meal. 
We spent the night in Anacortes and did a quick walk about this morning. Quiet town. Yellow Bunny was impressed with the fire hydrant water fountain. 
We drove through Edison but stopped long enough for fresh blueberry Danish and coconut macaroons at the Edison Bakery. Next stop Fairhaven, old town of Bellingham. 

Fairhaven is a quaint old town with lots of bookstores and restaurants. Yes more books purchased. Weather seems to be "turning". Forget camping tonight. So lunch instead at Skylark's Hidden Cafe. 
Norm liked his Shrimp Louis. My sandwich more boring white bread than flavour but chowder good. 
Often seems as we travel that we eat all the time. Well maybe.... We are hiding in our room at the Days Inn watching the Republican Convention. Hey we are in the USA! And check our dinner  from Haggen grocery store. 
Tomorrow we have an adventure that you will really want to watch for. (Especially Maureen)

  2. When in Rome...eating chips and sipping Coke. The meal does look a little imbalanced. Where's the chocolate?

  3. "Do'e's a deer", as they say in Victoria. I would have loved that show. Maybe we could do a reprise at Cusheon Lake. Fun read. Keep on blogging.
