Rons parents are going to celebrate their 60th wedding anniversary on May 31, and Ron, Deveta and Julie bought them a ticket to a little mini holiday down to the Clearwater Casino on the Kitsap Peninsula. Only thing was that they had to put up with our company.
Ron and I left from Summerland as my mom was joining us as well and Eve Barker was up early to take us over to the bus.
Our little bus met the others in Westbank and we were off. It was a beautiful sunny day but by the time we got to Hope it was pouring but that didn't dampen our spirits.
After our purchases at duty free we crossed the border into the United States and past all the raspberry farms.
Our driver took a little detour and went through the town of Lynden, it was a little Danish town and the yards of the houses were beautifuly kept and the rhodies were in full bloom. Here is the downtown street of Lynden.
From here we went to the Bellis Fair Mall and some shopped and some had lunch, back on the bus and we headed for Edmonds to catch our ferry over to Kingston.
Here we are pulling away from Edmonds.
I really don't know but this looks like a larger size water taxi shutteling over to Victoria.
Our hotel is lovely and we all have rooms overlooking the ocean.
The grounds are perfectly manicured.
Mom and Dad C were given a suite to celebrate their anniversary, it has a huge king size bed.
A bathtub with TV, etc. , they also got a bottle of champagne.
Ron's family thought that this portrait in our room reminded them of some of their relatives so had to have their picture taken with her.
