After a fun day of cycling on Lopez Island, members continue
to San Juan Island with a truck full of sheep.
|
From the ferry dock all have a nine mile pedal with fully loaded bikes
to Hotel de Haro at Roche Harbor for the evening rest stop.
|
Roche Harbor is a quiet little harbor village with many of the same
buildings that it had when it was first founded a century before.
|
Dinner here is a picnic style meal on the dock with other cyclists
and entertainment is stories around the fireplace in our hotel.
|
After a fun evening and a good night's rest, all wake to the beautiful
scenes of the harbor from the balcony around the hotel.
|
After getting dressed and ready to go, it's a quick breakfast
at the cafe and a look around town before all prepare to leave.
|
The sun of Lopez Island is covered by clouds today
but this does not dampen the spirits of the group.
|
From the viewpoint is the only way to see Hanging Gardens
State Park without hiking inland over rough country.
|
San Juan Island has some of the best scenic views of Puget Sound
and all waste little time starting the island loop.
|
As you can see from the photos, along with views there was plenty
of local wildlife to see, making for a very fun day of cycling.
|
At Friday Harbor all stop at the Front Street Ale House before
saying goodbye to the San Juans and heading home to Anacortes.
