Camping Trip
Recently my family went on a camping trip on Lopez Island, one of the San Juan Islands.
The highlight of the trip for me was a place called Fisherman's Bay (I think). It was a place with a lot of fruit trees and quite a few different birds. The seaside was particularly nice, but the best part was the apples. There were a bunch of apple trees, and one or two of them had really red ones. They were really crisp and sweet, and we picked a few and washed them in the ocean to eat.
The worst part of the trip was probably the day we left. We left to wait for the ferry about 1 hour before the ferry was supposed to leave. When we got there, we were car #146 and the ferry could only hold 140. We were extremely disappointed that we had to wait until 2:40 for the next ferry. However, the ferry couldn't hold 140, it held more like 120 cars. Since the next ferry was going to be smaller, we worried we would have to wait until 3 o'clock for the next ferry. Luckily, we got onto the 2:40 ferry, getting home at around 7:00. In essence, we spent almost all of our waking hours waiting for the ferry and then driving home.
The trip was fun and interesting, but I don't think we'll be going back there anytime soon because the ferries are just too weird and not dependable.
