Day Trip To Bellingham

With Les on holidays we decided to play tourists and headed across the border to check out Bellingham.

Our first stop was to the Bellingham Railway Museum (Eli is pictured running the Lionel model railroad exhibit). We then drove the scenic Chuckanut Drive (State Route 11), which was absolutely beautiful! Then it was back up to Bellingham to do a little shopping before heading back home.

The only hiccup was the border on the way home. The border guard didn't seem to believe us when we said we only spent $40 in a 7 hour period of visiting the US. Needless to say our trunk was searched and he checked out the kids backseat. Good thing we're honest folk!
