Annual Summer Road Trip (Aug. 21)

For the third year in a row we’re on a summer road trip, though this time we skipped the wheelchair accessible RV and settled with going in our own van. On Sunday we took the Anacortes ferry to Victoria, British Colombia and yesterday was our first full day exploring the city. We’re having fun despite the smoky conditions due to wildfires in northern BC. Tomorrow we take a different ferry across to Port Angeles and will spend the rest of the week exploring Olympic National Park.

Here’s what Lucas wrote yesterday, followed by some pictures:

Last night would’ve gone by quicker if I hadn’t been up the whole night. Anyway we’re on our road trip & in a hotel for 3 nights.

We just went to the BC Natural History Museum. There were these things that looked like mushrooms & every time we passed one we’d say mmmmmmushroom!

We also met a horse named Sam & went to a bug zoo where you touch bugs wich were the 2 highlights of our roadtrip so far.

We got here by taking the ferry wich was 3 hours, so we had some “3 hour entertainment”

I actually have TWO comments. First, Lucas, your haircut is looking so snazzy! Second, those bugs are ENORMOUS. WOW!! I am pretty sure that is the biggest bug I have ever seen in a photograph!

I loved this post! “Last night would’ve gone by quicker if I hadn’t been up the whole night.” – This made me laugh out loud – I bet your parents feel the same way! I love those ferries and “3-hour entertainment” – this sounds like an awesome trip!

Lucas we hope you enjoy the ferry to Port Angeles and Olympics as much as we did about 5+ years ago (pre-child). We remember it was so foggy and mysterious on the ferry. And also going thru immigration someplace other than an airport…
