San Juan Island Weekend Trip

Here is a map of the San Juan Islands. We drove to Anacortes then took a ferry to San Juan Island where we camped at Friday and Saturday night. On our way home we stopped at Lopez island. You can take a ferry from San Juan Island to Canada but there wasn't enough time this trip! It would be fun to go to Canada for the 2010 olympics!
This is a picture (obviously no taken by myself) of the campground that we stayed at. Our site was right on the lake. Family picture, which we don't get very often! We were on the ferry.


I thought about my granddady as I took this picture, he likes sail boats.

Picture preparing to dock at the island.
Here is cade driving the boat!



We rented a paddle boat for an hour on the lake by our campsite. Althought in the picture Ethan does not look comfortable he did enjoy it. Gabe and I got more of a workout then we thought we would have.
The paddle boat was smaller so it was hard to paddle with the kids on our laps. We found a nice little seat for cade. Althouh he missed his nap this day and almost fell over from falling asleep so he didn't stay up there very long!!





Cade enjoying chocolate ice cream. He is a chocolate fan!

I don't remember what was going on here, but I thought his expression was...fun.






Ethan enjoying a cracker. He never really ate the baby food so went to table food.





Isn't this such a cute picture!






If you can see the yellow kayak in the water, well that is Gabriel. We rented a kayak and Gabriel and I took turns paddling around for a little bit. We really enjoy kayaking and are looking into eventually getting our own.
This is a light house that we went to on drive around the island.

Looks like a really nice trip. Any trip to any island has got to be nice, in my opinion. I think the pictures you took are lovely. The last one of the lighthouse looked like it should be up in your house and framed or up in my house and framed, either way!

I am trying to force myself into the blogging age...so here comes another comment!
The photos are beautiful, as always. And Cade and Ethan...what can I say? They get more adorable all the time!
Looking forward to seeing you in about 2 weeks. Wish Gabriel could come too!
Love, Mom L.
