Friday morning we got up and down to the Ferry to ride over to Friday Harbor where we were met by Ron and Judy. Their daughter, Jen lives on the island and Ron and Judy happened to be visiting them the same week that we were there. Anacortes is exactly where you would catch the ferry to go over to the island. We didn’t have to drive our car on because Ron and Judy were meeting us at Friday Harbor and were driving us around the island and then to Jen’s home for lunch. You’ll notice the all important “selfie” on the ferry.
I had to put the picture below because it is a funny picture of both Annie and I. Sorry Annie, had to do it!
Ron and Judy took us around the island and showed us that you can see Canada directly across from the San Juan Island. We saw the old light house and did some whale watching but to no avail.
We toured the island and then had a nice lunch at Jen and Gibby’s home and then back to the ferry for our ride back to Anacortes. Because we are so close to Canada we are required to go through customs on the way back from the island. Even thought we never stepped foot on Canada. We thought that was a bit interesting.
We got back in time to head do some sight seeing around the town and then back to the condo to settled in for the evening. By the way, it was really cold and jackets were required every day.
