Dan, Tiff and Abby's Trip/Day 1

We have been so busy the last few days! Daniel, Tiffany and Abby came up very late Tuesday night and have spent the last few days with us. We have definately been on the go because we wanted them to see as much of our beautiful state as we could. Because we had been up so late the night before (didn't get to bed until about 2 a.m. The airport is a good 2 hours away!)so we decided to go into Anacortes to show them the Deception Pass Bridge. It's such a magnificent bridge that connects the mainland to Whidbey Island. You can read more about it here if you like! :)

After walking around Deception Pass, we then went to Washington Park. As you can see, the beach isn't anything like the white, sandy beaches to be found in Florida!

We then went up to Mount Erie to enjoy the beautiful view from there. Mount Erie is in Anacortes, Wa. and many climbers are able to enjoy the climbs without having to drive such a long way.

A beautiful view from the top.

The view just doesn't get much better than this!

After our long day, we made it home in time for church. Daniel was our "special guest speaker".


And Abby wasn't too tired to make a few new friends!
