We are at it again. We cycled 1200 miles down the coast of Oregon, into California, over the Golden Gate Bridge and into San Francisco. Then it was a ferry across the bay to Vallejo and a lovely side trip up the Napa Valley to Callestoga. That was the end of the bike portion of our trip.

Bellingham, Washington

Mission Accomplished!

As hard as it is to believe, our trip is over. We biked into Bellingham on Friday and have exchanged our biking clothes for "regular" attire, our tent for a bed indoors, and our daily question of "where will we be tonight?" is no longer relevant. We need a good dose of debriefing to gently make our way back into a less transient existence.

After leaving Sedro Woolley we biked to Anacortes where we spent the night before taking the ferry to Victoria, British Columbia. Victoria is the provincial capital of British Columbia and has a great harbor, spectacular mountain views, and a vibrant, active population of cyclists. There are bike paths everywhere which made it quite pleasant for us. We spent 2 days in the city, took the ferry back to Anacortes and left for Bellingham the next day. It's been great seeing old friends and enjoying the nice fall weather here. But it is a bit of a let down to have our trip behind us. We couldn't have asked for a better experience and nicer memories. My next step is to get the last of our pictures off the camera and onto this blog. So check back in a few days. Our trip through the Cascades was magnificent and the pictures will be fun to see.
