Did you see anyone on the small island? I am wanting to take sunset or sunrise over the water but that means getting to a large enough body of water to make that happen. At least an hour away. Thanks for sharing and have a great week.

And yes, we LOVE to go off the beaten path, it is our very most favorite thing to do. What a beautiful week of exploring and relaxing you had, and that you got to enjoy fireworks without all the people too, just amazing! I loved seeing all the wildlife you saw, and imagine it must have been pretty tricky navigating through the rocks. A perfect relaxing vacation! And that picture of Mt. Baker is incredible, what a view!

The fireworks you saw were from Blaine - the US city just across the border from White Rock - where the main border crossing is. Blaine has the good old fashioned 4th of July celebration like we had as kids: parades, events, booths of games, carnival, street food vendors and of course the fireworks over the bay - it is an event that many travel miles to participate in.<br /><br />Wonderful photos of your little trip - the goose family is fabulous - the colors are amazing. We like to go to little traveled spots too - though we don't have a boat. Yesterday we went to a nature reserve that we'd not known about before and saw dozens of American Pelicans (they are white) resting on an island in Padilla Bay.
