Day 6 - Biking on Shaw Island

Today we wanted to bike on Shaw Island. We missed the morning ferry there and the next one didn’t leave from Orcas to Shaw until around 3:30. Shaw is the smallest of the Islands the Ferry shuttles people too so it looked like only three or so trips a day went back and forth. We were dinking around and didn’t leave until we had just enough time to drive onto the ferry with our bikes on the car. Which cost us $21.00 unfortunately. Riding in car to Shaw didn’t cost anything but riding back to Orcas in a car cost $21.00?  We wouldn’t have drove on if we knew that. Anyway we were there and the ferry going back to Orcas left just under an hour later. So this ride was going to be short and sweet or we would have to wait on the island until 8:00 pm when the next ferry headed to Orcas. We found the island to have beautiful scenery and very little traffic. We only rode 4 miles so we didn’t get to explore much but if we do this again I’d start with Shaw Island because of not getting to see much of it and its less traffic.  
Pictures from Shaw.


So peaceful.


Loving the road names on these islands.


Loving the man who explored and biked with me.


Another day of vacation to add to our memory and experience suitcase of life.
