Victoria

We returned from Victoria late Friday Night after a great time there, and yes we stayed a day longer than planned.

Getting over to Victoria from Marysville required using two ferries. The first one, a Washington State Ferry, from Edmonds to Kingston and the other, the Black Ball Ferry, from Port Angles to Victoria. We made reservation for the Black Ball ferry for the 12:30 crossing and were instructed to arrive an hour early. Not knowing how the morning traffic would be or how crowded the Washington Ferry would be, I identified the latest three ferries that would get us to the next ferry, the Black Ball, on time and we shot for the first of the three, hey run about half hour apart. Well the traffic was heavy but moved fast and we were able to jump on an earlier ferry. Long story short we arrived at the Black Ball dock around 8:30am. At least we were first in line!

I will try to catch up on the rest of the trip tomorrow.
