07/26/2019 Day 47 head to Elma WA

Today we head to Elma, WA.
We’re backtracking through Seattle/Tacoma area, rather than ferry, so it’ll be a long, slow drive. We’ll be in Elma for 2 nights, then Sequim, WA for 3 nights. Olympic National Park is over there and who knows what else. It’s an adventure! 

We’re making our way down towards OR, but had to take what we could get as far as reservations go. 
These last few days on Whidbey Island have been awesome! Beautiful campground, beautiful scenery and beautiful day trips. 
We took a drive to Anacortes yesterday. It was a nice scenic drive on WA20, through Deception Pass. 

Description

Deception Pass is a strait separating Whidbey Island from Fidalgo Island, in the northwest part of the U.S. state of Washington. It connects Skagit Bay, part of Puget Sound, with the Strait of Juan de Fuca. A pair of bridges known collectively as Deception Pass Bridge cross Deception Pass.

I wanted to drive to Anacortes because you’re supposed to be able to seethe whales, sea otters and other wildlife. Well.......that didn’t really work outfor us. It’s a pretty nice town with lots of boats and a big marina but no place to just stop and look out. That was pretty disappointing. They even had a nice little “viewpoint” area with tables, but the trees were blocking the view. https://drive.google.com/uc?export=view&id=1J6dh0QGykhWxK56wTaItikXiP9VkW9vP

Mr C said he saw a seal when he waswalking the girls, so we’re even since I saw the eagles yesterday.
