Two weekends before we left Washington, we took the ferry over to Victoria, BC. This is the closest "big city" to Port Angeles and it was nice to walk around downtown and shop. I love the architecture here...when the ferry pulls into the harbor, it feels like you are entering another world. We went to Butchart Gardens, which was beautiful, and visited a bug museum at Danielle's request. If you think the giant locusts in FL are bad, you should see some of the bugs in Africa....super creepy. I held a giant millipede and got sick off of bubble tea, which I guess was a good thing since my obsession was getting a little out of hand.
