Round two @ Forks, Washington; La Push, 1st & 2nd beach; Vancouver, BC Canada

Day 7

My brother and I just trekked the Cape Flattery trail and contemplated whether to do the Ozette Lake trail. I hoped that my brother would put some more of his input into the decision making and not just follow my lead. It was nearly dusk, so we decided to head back. There were a lot of things to do in so little time. I really wanted to do the 9-mile trail, but due to time constraints, I was not able to do so. The problem that faced us now was whether we would head back to Olympic National Park to check out Hurricane Ridge or head back into Forks, WA and check out La Push, 1st and 2nd beach the following morning. We decided to revisit Forks contingent on a motel reservation. The first night in Washington on day 4, we found no accommodations at a motel for less than $60. Luckily, at the end of day 6, I found a reservation @ Bagsby's Motel in Forks under $70.

Our day 7 started like this... 

We departed Bagsby's Motel, but before that, we checked out its aromatic and beautiful flower garden.

We were off to our next adventure, but decided to check out the places seen in the Twilight movie.

Who's that looking out the window?

After some sight seeing, we went off and got some breakfast @ a Forks local coffee shop. After breakfast, we went off to La Push, 1st and 2nd beach.

The trail down to 2nd beach was spectacular. Although, once you have reached the beach, you would have to traverse through these washed out logs. Just be careful with your step!

The drive to West Vancouver, BC Canada...

Mount Rainier

Seattle, WA

Canada's customs check point

The drive from Port Angeles to Vancouver, BC Canada took us about 8 hours. One could have taken a ferry through the many ports in Washington to Seattle. The closest one would be at Port Townsend, but it was late and the price was steep. Once we entered Canada, one had to remember that they use the metric system. It proved difficult to gauge the vehicle's speed. Nevertheless, the view, freeways, bridges, and transportation system that Canada had was top tier.
