Port Townsend, WA

Our next planned destination, Port Townsend, WA, was the one marina for the whole season which would not take reservations until the morning of our arrival.   I didn’t think that would be a problem since we are fairly late in the season but it also didn’t occur to me that it was Labor Day weekend.  Fortunately my concerns proved unwarranted as they were able to take us when I called first thing in the morning and we arrived early enough to walk to lunch at the Fountain Cafe.  There we found a very cute downtown containing a mix stores carrying everything from antiques to high end merchandise and clothing.  From my perspective the highlight was a West Marine just a few blocks from the boat allowing me to stock up on marine supplies which I had not been able to easily do in several weeks.  It was a nice evening so we enjoyed some time on the flybridge before dining “uptown” at Finistere.
