Ferry to Friday Harbor

You want a fun day at a reasonable expense. Take the ferry from Anacortes, Washington to Friday Harbor. Park you vehicle at the ferry terminal, and purchase a walk-on ticket. It is about $13 round trip and takes a little over an hour. So you can stroll aboard at 9:00, get to FH at 10:00, walk the streets of town for several hours, buy a t-shirt or a painting, have lunch, hop on a return trip and be back to your car before supper. A great day I would say
