Bellingham: "Splitsville" (and we're back!)

It's official - the bash brothers have been separated. Orion decided to continue on to Victoria (granted, that was the original plan) while Elizabeth and I decided to drive down the Washington coast. We're going to meet back up on Monday afternoon when we pick up Orion from the port at Anacortes. In the meantime, now that we're back in the good ol' US of A, we'll be back to our regular posting.

Everything is going well back in the motherland. We waited an hour and a half at the border and we actually were interrogated more than any other car we saw. Apparently traveling in a van with boxes of goods (our food supplies) and a Georgia license plate is something of a curiosity in these parts. Oh well.

We then made it to pretty Bellingham, Washington. It's nice here and the waterfront affords a pretty view. For now, we're relaxing in a homey coffee shop called Espresso Avellino. I had a delicious "Apple Pull-Apart" which is a crazy apple/cinnamon roll type concoction that they make here. It literally tastes good to be back in the states...

Now that we're back to normal posting look for more to come,
