I knew we were crossing the border because I was told to have our passports ready - we ended up going to San Juan Island, which is just west of Washington state - and just east of Vancouver Island. We took the ferry from Anacortes to Friday Harbor.
Holly saw this mermaid carving outside a store and asked if I would take her picture with it.
Our room - Captain's Quarters at the Hillside House Bed & Breakfast.
Holly loved wearing the hat and pretending to be a pirate - one of her favourite "pretend" games right now. We had to be Matey Daddy and Matey Mommy on the ship! We were all tired from a few long days of work (Daddy was in Victoria until this morning for work) - and we were all in bed AND asleep by 8:30pm - thereby participating in Earth Hour, which was Earth Evening for us!
