Have never been up to San Juan Island and neither had John's family so we ventured out one Fri. morn. Took 2 hours just to drive to the ferry, we were going to walk on the ferry but, missed it by a few minutes so then we had to wait about an hour for the next one. Once we got on it was a beautiful, sunny ride around the islands. The kids loved being on such a big boat and we were hoping to catch a glympse of a whale but, that didn't happen.
Got to Friday Harbor about an hour & a half later and went to get dinner, the kids were pretty tired by the time we were done since we didn't get their until 6:30 pm. And then we find out the next & LAST ferry was not until 10 pm. The kids just hung outside until it got dark and then went back to the van to watch a movie. THANK GOD for the DVD player!!
Once we were back on board the ferry, we headed home & thought that we would just chill for the next 2 hours. NO! The kids wanted to play & run all around the ferry til we were just docking in Anacortes at around midnight. Jumped back in the van and it was totally dead! So, of course the people on the ferry are prepared for such an incident. Get the van back in order & finally on our way back down to Tacoma for another 2 hour trip.
It was such a beautiful day and I'm glad that we got to take the kids & family up there to see the sights of our beautiful Washington state!
