Anacortes

We arrived at dinner time and Missy had a great dinner for us. You will notice there aren't any pictures of her, she doesn't like them and I forgot to get one with her and the boys. The boys went to bed relatively easy. Cedrik didn't ever figure out the time change so I was up early every morning. We went to the beach and threw a lot of rocks. Then a seal came in with a boat and we walked to the dock just in time to see it. It was only two feet away and the man in the boat said everyone feeds the seal and he comes in close every day. They call him "Old Blood Eye." One of his eyes was obviously missing and the skin that formed in its places was bulging and pink. We all felt bad for him but he seemed very content to stare at us. We drove around the little park, and went to see the boats at the marina, and that afternoon took the boys to the park. We had another great dinner and the boys passed out.

Monday we hung around the house for the morning, went for a walk again to the marina, and had lunch in town at a very cute deli. We walked to a candy store (my request) and bought some chocolate and taffy (on top of the piece of cake we bought to take home from the deli-oh, and the Fidalgo cookie). That afternoon the boys played outside for a little bit and we went to the tulip farm/garden at RoozenGaarde. They produce the most tulips in the world and it was gorgeous. Cedrik pushed Freddie in the stroller the whole time and managed to not run into/over any flowers.

Burritos for dinner and bed at last. The drive home was long. VERY long but the boys again did great.

Today, we are all tired and it shows but it was a fun trip!
