Port Townsend is an amazingly beautiful place and is situated at the apex of Admiralty Inlet and Port Townsend Bay and across from Whidbey Island. The buildings are of Victorian architecture and cover both the uptown and downtown districts. We were camped at the marina at the end of Water Street. There we watched many fishing boats as they left in the early morning and returned at dusk. Sailboats scurried about the surface and were entertaining to observe....especially when the sailing lessons were in session.
We were there from Tuesday, May 11th until Friday, 14th. We would have stayed longer, but the RV park was booked for the weekend because of the Rhododendron Festival. Besides that fact, a parade was scheduled to begin at 2:00 pm. Trying to negotiate the narrow, winding and steep streets in a 40' motor home pulling a 25' trailer while avoiding the parade route would have been quite a challenge.
Port Townsend was most likely the most charming of the places we visited, but the weather in Sequim cannot be beat!
