So it's taken us longer to post stories and pictures from our two week trip to the San Juan Islands than we would have liked, but as they say, better late than never!
We spent a fabulous and relaxing two weeks cruising up to the San Juans Islands, an archipelago between Washington and British Columbia, and back. We made a clockwise loop, stopping at Kingston, Port Townsend, Friday Harbor, Stuart Island, Patos Island, Sucia Island, Matia Island, Anacortes, La Conner, Coupeville and Everett.
It was our longest cruise to date, and although we thought we'd enjoy ourselves, "enjoy" doesn't even come close to explaining how fabulous it was. Being away from our jobs, the internet (eek!), traffic and the day-to-day grind that you don't realize is there until you remove it was truly refreshing. Certainly the San Juans are busy with other folks trying to get away from it all too, but many times it was just me and Aaron and the boat. We spent hours reading in the cockpit, lounging on the foredeck, hiking the trails, exploring deserted islands with our dinghy and just generally relaxing.
We have a number of funny stories that we'll post later; be sure to watch for "Up Close with Poo" and "Mugged in Coupeville."
In the meantime, we'll follow with posts about some of our favorite spots...
