They say it rained a lot overnight, but when we looked, the sun was out and it was only a bit windy. But that brutal wind storm that had been forecast seems to have blown over! On the way to the ferry terminal, we stopped to check out the Army Corps of Engineers W. T. Preston Snagboat. Very interesting!
So, off we went to the ferry and got in line for the 10:30 trip. No problem!
The trip over was a bit bumpy in the main channel but otherwise smooth as can be. It was too cold and windy to be out on the deck! We got to Friday Harbor on time, about noon. The weather is on and off - sun, then rain, then more sun. Temps in the mid 40s. Gusty winds but not too bad. We had a nice lunch at the Blue Fish (more clam chowda). We found our room at the Tucker House and met Susan and Glen, the Inn keepers. (Note: our room was on the second floor with a treacherous twisting staircase. Only young people should have this otherwise very nice room)
On the advice of the Innkeeper we went across the street to the San Juan Brewery to watch the NCAA final (Kansas beat N.C.), while eating pizza and Greek salad.
