Mascota and San Sebastian del Oeste
December 14th, 2011 · 1 Comment
We took a few extra days to climb up into the mountains to San Sebastian del Oeste and Mascota. We will not regret getting off the beaten path to see an unspoiled town in the mountains on the night of the Virgen de Guadalupe. It was absolutely wonderful.

We explored the beach. Spirit leaped, bounded, and sprinted all over. Daniel discovered fire making (in the fireplace), I cooked, [...]

Having negotiated the Strait of Juan de Fuca on a less foggy day, we approached the San Juan Islands via Cattle Pass which separates Lopez and San Juan Islands. We stopped for a while at American Camp on the south end of San Juan Island, and then went to Fisherman Bay. We knew Lila and [...]
