Post 6: Port Haddock, WA

We got out of Centrailia at 8 this Sunday morning and drove the 25 miles to Olympia on the dreded but empty Interstate 5 where we picked up Hwy 101 north. This was another beautiful ride with little to no traffic, through forest and small towns, with the canal along the right. We stopped at a county park at waters edge and checked out the dugout canoes. Next week they will gather many more for a tour of canoes in Puget Sound. We continued on to Port Hadlock where we had reserved a room for the night.

A call to Samantha and her mom and we would get together for a great sea food lunch at Scampi & Halibut in P.H. We noodled through some antique stores in Port Townsend this afternoon and bought nothing but some Washington wines. After a good nap and relaxing at the motel, we went to the recomended Ajax Cafe. What a great spot. People were waiting for tables but we got right in when Judy told them we're good tippers.The food and wine was great and the service slow enough so that we noshed for more than 2 hours enjoying the piano player and the people around us. What a fun evening we all had.

We all plan to get up early and catch the 8am ferry from Port Townsend to Keystone. From there we're up to Annacortes and the ferry to Victoria, B.C. A few days seeing the sights and we'll be going to Vancouver, B.C.

No Photos because I can't find my wire. I hope it's not in Centralia.
