Soon after our trip into Seattle,Carl & Tammie arrived.We spent the rest of the evening at the pool.The next morning,we got ready for our trip{packing and unpacking the car would become the bane of our existence during the whole trip} to The Juan De Fuca Trail up on Vancouver Island,Canada.It is called the Juan De Fuca Trail because it goes along the coast of the Juan De Fuca Strait.
We left Seattle and drove up to Port Angeles to catch our ferry into Canada.While I was drinking the local,'Juan De Fuca' beer,the waitress told us that the movie/book,'Twilight' was supposed to take place in the next town or two over called,Forks,and they have been having an influx of tourists.What I found even more interesting was that Port Angeles is the start/finish of the famous west coast route,Rt.101.
We got Black balled...well the ferry line was called,Black Ball Ferry~Line.We saw Pilot whales...but too far off in the distance for my camera.
An hour or so later,we were finally on Vancouver Island,Canada,arriving in the very beautiful and progressive city of Victoria.
Another hour or so we finally got to our destiation:China Beach:The trailhead into the Juan De Fuca Trail
Our great adventure had begun...
