Well, what a difference! We went from being stared at on Orcas Island, to having everyone wave at us, which they do do here, so get used to it. They smile often too.

The road coming up off the wharf is wide. People drive slower here than the other place, I guess because they're enjoying it all, and want to soak up as much as possible. The hills are minimal, and the traffic is friendly, so biking around here is popular.

We legged it about 8km to the main village. (5 miles - you people are supposed to go metric already, ref the Treaty of the Meter 1875, the USA Metric Conversion Act of 1975, and the current NIST metric program to attempt conversion).

We saw the sea - a public park: campground no less, with free public facilities. Lots of beautiful properties, several Earth flags - heartening to see. It was a pleasure to walk.

Then we got to the Bay Cafe - a highlight of the trip, see next review.

Lopez has more appeal than J Lo's arse.
