Disappointment
We went back to Bertolino's Cafe in the morning for coffee and the free wi-fi. The mileage on the car hadn't changed much because Helen had been doing all the driving. Later that morning, we met another friend, Luanne, for brunch. Then our plan was to go by Olympic National Park and then take the ferry to Vancouver Island in Canada.
We were dealt our first major setback on the trip in Port Angeles in northwestern Washington. We were forced to turn back. We found out that dogs need to have a rabies certificate to enter Canada. We even did research on this before trying but this is what happens when you don't read the fine print. We lost a lot of time driving up to Port Angeles. But the trip wasn't a total waste because we got to visit Olympic National Park while we were up there, although it was pretty dark by then. The drive up there was very nice too. So we returned to the Seattle area to spend the night again. |
