On last weekend we decided to to make the long weekend into a long camping trip. Friday found us staying over at Melbourne Lake, a truly beautiful spot but some very loud neighbors.On Saturday morning we moved further north to Seal Rock, a 40 site camp right on Hood Canal near Brinnon, WA. That's where we took these pictures. While paddling we saw these starfish, some spiny crabs, and plenty of seals. In fact, our lunch spot must have been the seals high tide hideout. They swam around us until we got out of their way and could finally come ashore.
On Sunday we traveled a bit further yet and spent the day in Port Townsend, a city that reminded us of Astoria in several ways. While we found that the paddling wasn't as scenic there, we did enjoy the good weather and a nice picnic in a community park overlooking the Straits of Juan de Fuca.
On Monday we were happy to make the trip home to enjoy a nice warm shower!
