These are some of the tulip fields near La Conner, on Whidbey Island. We went over for the Skagit Valley Tulip Festival. This is a great day trip from Port Townsend, during April.

The Port Townsend waterfront is a great place to walk on your weekend getaway, even in the winter months. With its 50s America decor and cheerful attitude, the Nifty Fiftys Soda Fountain is a must-visit. Pop in for a waffle ice cream cone, root beer float, an espresso, or an old-fashioned, hand-mixed phosphate soda.

This is our local ferry from Port Townsend to Whidbey Island. It’s a fun trip across the bay, about 30 minutes time, where you can read or snooze, or just enjoy the beautiful scenery.
