Ferry Hopping across Puget Sound

6/25 - San Juan Island (14 miles)
6/26 - Orcas Island (28 miles)
6/27 - Port Townsend (30 miles)


More ferries and more Islands... We really didn't have a plan but "visit the San Juan Islands" and once on the islands we really just rode around in circles (around the islands). We really wanted to see some orcas (killer whales) but instead settled for an old English encampment. The towns were cute but touristy -- we had fun bushwhacking and camping for free. That's probably a book that's not on the market "Bushwhacking the San Juan Islands - the guide to free camping in expensive touristy islands"; perhaps we'll write the first.

Rachel just loved Port Townsend. We looked at Victorian buildings and houses and all kinds of stuff like that. We stayed in the backyard of Bev's and were guided across the monstrously hilly hamlet.
