The drive out to Friday Harbor was a bumpy yet uneventful success.  After tying the boat up at the dock, we grabbed our cameras for an exploratory stroll around town and some lunch.

Our favorite restaurant Downriggers burned down so they turned it into a food truck. It’s still awesome. 🙂
Pretty little wooden boat. I admire this one every time we come here.

I like Friday Harbor quite a bit.  It’s a neat place to stop in the boat and the marina is really nice.  I wish we’d had time to rent mopeds and go up to English camp, British camp (google the Pig War!), Lime Kiln Lighthouse etc… but we decided to move on and explore other things. We’ll be back though! 🙂

    Friday Harbor is cool. And the bald eagle pic is terrific! Can you get some more group shots of everyone, especially with you in them, Ashley? Thanks for all the pics, keep em coming!
