Eileen and I took the ferry to Whidbey Island and drove all over the place, stopping in several towns along the way: In Langley we ate lunch at the excellent french Prima Bistro that Eileen knew of and I had the best Reuben I've ever had. Then later in Coupeville, we had tea at Tea and Treasure, a storefront with a tea garden and lily pond out back, and Deception Pass, where I took lots of photos of the magnificent bridge there.
We also stopped at various shops and bought a few items--nothing all that interesting and nothing antique. (although I got a very handsome magnifying glass with a bone handle plus and small piece of pottery for my mom.
The sun was out all day, the sunset stunning, the moonrise thrilling, the color changing from the color (as Eileen put it) of a Ritz cracker to a giant pearl. We ate dinner at a restaurant at Anacortes then drove home. We arrived back in Seattle around 10:15.
