A long time ago, during a ferry ride from Anacortes, I remember a stop we made at Lopez island and promised myself one day I'd visit the place. Well, that day finally came this past weekend when I joined a small group for kayak training. We launched off of Spencer Spit and spent the first half of the day practicing paddle strokes. After lunch, we launched off to circle Frost island. Along the way, we spotted some seals and paddled close the edge of the island to checkout starfish and marine plantlife. It was a bright "sun-less" day and with the waters really calm (with the just occasional waves when the ferries pass by), it was real sweet. By around five we were back on the shore and were shuttled back to the dock, just in time to make the 5:15 ferry ride back to Anacortes.
I'd definitely like to do this again.
