With the political situation going on right now between Canada and the US, we hesitated to take our usual spring road trip to Wyoming. We've always had smooth border crossings via ferry or rail so decided we would go ahead with the trip and make a point of going back and forth on the Coho Ferry. So far so good on the way there. The border agents were the most friendly and pleasant we've encountered!
We took the afternoon ferry so by the time we stocked up on fresh groceries in Port Angeles, we went to the campground near the Dungeness National Wildlife Refuge. An evening walk along the water gave us amazing views of Mount Baker and a colourful sunset.

The following day we stopped at the
Point Defiance Zoo and Aquarium in Tacoma. Upon entering, we immediately got a great view of Mount Rainier!
Not only is it a great zoo and aquarium but the grounds are beautifully spread out and there are lots of flowers, plants, trees and grassy areas.

We got more great views of Mount Rainier as we continued on our journey. Hard to believe we once climbed both Mount Baker and Mount Rainier. It seems so along ago! Which it is! LOL!
