This morning, bicycle the serene shores of San Juan Island, enjoying open farmland and marine vistas from quiet country roads. Visit English Camp, a national historic park that was once part of the “Pig War” between England and the United States, and Lime Kiln State Park, one of the best orca (‘killer’) whale watching spots in the country. Tour the heavenly-scented fields at Pelindaba Lavender Farm and take your pick of several different routes back to town. Enjoy dinner on your own tonight in Friday Harbor.

Explore Lopez Island today. Lopez is the flattest, most rural and least populated of the three main San Juan Islands. It’s also considered the ‘bicyclist’s island’ for its quiet roads, gentle terrain, spectacular marine vistas, and friendly residents who wave as you bicycle past. Ride clockwise around the island, starting with Spencer Spit State Park, then south to Watmough Bay (watch for seals!). Listen to the sound of the waves gently stirring the rocks on the shore at Agate Beach. This is a great day for views of the Olympic Mountains and looking back over some of the places you’ve explored this week. Dinner tonight is hosted by Haven Kitchen, another of our local favorites.

First, enjoy a relaxing morning and a fabulous breakfast at the Edenwild. Next, bypass the infamous Seattle gridlock (on a Friday, no less!) and return to downtown Seattle in style via a chartered float plane. Savor birds-eye views of Puget Sound, Cascade Mountains, and Olympics as you soar past the traffic. Meet the van and celebrate a wonderful week with lunch on the shores of Lake Union.
