Ellie and I returned home this evening after five fantastic days on the west side. Saturday we weaved our way north from Camano Island all the way to Bellingham taking back roads and stopping at used book stores and kids shops looking for cute clothes for the babe-to-be. Most notably, during our weaving through the non-existent tulip field, we experience a most wondrous snow storm!! In Bellingham, we ate at "On Rice", a Thai restaurant that came highly recommended. It was great!! On Sunday, we travelled south to Seattle to spend the day with our friend Brock and his girlfriend Kayanna and her daughter Grace. We went up the space needle, rode the monorail downtown, and went out to dinner. It was another great day!! Monday, we took the ferry to San Juan Island. We drove around the whole island stopping in Friday Harbor, Roche Harbor, Lime Kiln Lighthouse, and Cattle Point Lighthouse. Other than just being in such a beautiful place, Ellie and I saw our first fox. It came across the road as we were driving. Awesome!! Tuesday turned out to be a day of relaxation. Ellie and I both finished books we were reading!! We had dinner at Jimmy Pizza and Pasta in Stanwood. Our pizza was phenomenal!! Today, we walked the beach by the cabin we stayed in and got some great pictures of a bald eagle. On the drive home we stopped off at Snoqualmie Falls for a brief break. We pulled in around 7pm. On the whole, the week was a blast filled with amazing views and great company!!
