Day one is off to a great start! We arrived in Seattle around 1:30 today and found ourselves on a detour almost immediately. Our rental car company suggested a visit to Alki Beach in Seattle—boasting great views of the city and a nice, beach-side restaurant. We went straight there for lunch and a beer before heading back downtown to find the Ferry Terminal.
We took the Ferry from Seattle to Bainbridge Island (pictured above)—it was amazing! The views were absolutely gorgeous. After arriving in Bainbridge, we continued to head west toward the Peninsula, crossing the Hood Canal Bridge along the way. We arrived in Port Angeles around 8:00 tonight, checked into our hotel (overlooking the harbor) and went to dinner at Bella Italia (the restaurant that Edward takes Bella to in Twilight!). I can't wait to see what tomorrow has in store for us! It's about 10:30 here, but feels like 1:30 to me—time for bed!
