July 9 (Monday) – Redmond-Ozette-Sequim
David, Emily and I went on a short camping trip in Washington – partly so we could see the Pacific Ocean for the first time, and partly so Emily could show us her favorite place in the world.
To get there, we had to take a ferry! Emily was excited to be on the Puget Sound again. She misses salt water when we’re in Germany.
We drove up to the Ozette trails, which took us out to the westernmost point on the Pacific Ocean.
Now I have an idea of what C.S. Lewis meant when he mentioned a “holiday at the sea.” Why make mud pies when you can step on exploding kelp, chase crabs into marine crevices, and explore miles of driftwood?
We camped overnight in Sequim.
