On the way to Hope Island.Rainbow Bridge at the south end of La Conner.
La Conner from the Swinomish Channel.
Taking the tidal current south, we depart the La Conner marina to head to nearby Hope Island for five days. The weather is cool, but okay, so we decide not to head out too far, plus Bobby has another medical appointment in a week.
Only a few boats are at Hope Island when we arrive, so we pick up a mooring ball and enjoy the quiet. The hike around the island is not well marked in spots and can turn into somewhat of an adventure if you do not pay attention. We did a lot of reading cuddled up in fleece. On Sunday, we catch the tidal current and head back to La Conner marina.
