Chucking it down on the Chuckanut drive!

We drove south from Vancouver to the the American border and then crossed into Washington State. Here we were heading for Bellingham and the beginning of the Chuckanut drive. Bellingham wasn't that pretty so we moved onto La Conner but no hotel rooms as there was a huge Pow Wow taking place in the area.

We carried on to Anacortes and from there started the drive. The heavens opened at about mile 6 but we carried on up the mountain and marvelled at what the views would have been! The road was originally opened in 1896 and joined two communities that up until that point had been paddling down the coast to trade with each other.
