Our exciting adventure begins today as we travel to the Lower Mainland where we meet up with our friends from Paramount Travel. Purchase your Duty-free, and then continue into Washington. Enjoy a short scenic excursion across Puget Sound from Edmonds to Kingston and then arrive at the beautiful Clearwater Casino Resort in Suquamish. Prepare to unwind for the next two nights and be dazzled by this breathtaking hotel with 4 diamond amenities and stunning natural wonders.

Relax and enjoy the amenities or join us for shopping in Silverdale. With 110 retail stores including Kohl’s, JCPenney, Macy’s and Barnes & Noble, enjoy a couple of hours at Kitsap Mall; the largest mall between Seattle/Tacoma and the Pacific Ocean. Return to the Clearwater Casino Resort for lunch before boarding the coach for an afternoon excursion to Poulsbo. Known as ‘Little Norway’ the quaint village of Poulsbo was settled in 1892 by Norwegian farmers and fishermen who likened the fjord-cut landscape to their homeland. Enjoy the ambiance of Front St. with dozens of colorful shops offering everything from Scandinavian gifts to fine art, fashion, antiques, bakeries and Marine Museum. Take a relaxing stroll along the boardwalk in search of seals, herons and eagles, and then return for another evening of fun, relaxation and casino excitement. (B)

It’s a short drive today between Suquamish and Ocean Shores. Travelling south on Kitsap Peninsula we arrive in Hoquiam – home to the 7th Street Theatre. Built in 1928, the 7th Street Theatre is one of the few remaining atmospheric-style theatres on the West Coast. Its unique interior, transforms into a simulated open-air playhouse with a painted “sky” ceiling complete with clouds and twinkling stars. Settle in for the next two nights at the Quinault Beach Resort and Casino. Its location offers views of unparalleled beauty from virtually every window and vantage point with nothing but sandy beach separating it from the rolling surf. (B, D)

Today is a day to enjoy the resort at your leisure. Take a stroll along the beach or try your luck in the Vegas-style casino featuring a wide variety of gaming tables and slot machines. Or treat yourself to one of the monthly spa specials and come away relaxed, refreshed and rejuvenated. (B)

Following breakfast, we enjoy a day of scenic delights as we travel the beautiful Olympic Peninsula via Hwy 101 north. Olympic National Park provides a diverse and stunning world – from the fog-shrouded coast to North America’s finest temperate rain forest with an annual rainfall of over 12 feet! From Port Townsend, we board the ferry and cross Puget Sound back to the Washington mainland. Cross Deception Pass Bridge where the views from the 180’ bridge are spectacular as water rushes through the narrow passage below. Just past Anacortes, we arrive at the Swinomish Casino & Lodge where breathtaking views of the Padilla Bay, Swinomish Channel, San Juan Islands and Mount Baker surround this lovely hotel and casino property.

This morning, we depart Swinomish and head north to the border. Break for lunch in the small town of Lynden where its Dutch influence is on display from the large windmill that greets you in the downtown to the quaint cafes and shops that line Main Street with the smells of homemade soups and fresh bread beckoning. Following a stop at the Duty-free, we cross the Sumas border and then retrace our route over the Coquihalla. Bid farewell to travelling companions as you arrive home early this evening with wonderful memories of a delightful seashore escape with Sun Fun Tours. (B)
