Port Townsend

What a great town is Pt Townsend. A perfect laid-back town of small size. Apparently in the 70's-80's when San Francisco became too contemporary the hippies moved out and many moved to Pt Townsend. It was a bit like Castlemaine, Vic or Byron Bay (but colder).

This is our little hotel. Tina & John's room mid-level on the right and ours was the opposite side of the building.


These guys were playing on a street corner. Thier style was boot-leg blues. Very fun. We bought their CD to support them and we loved the music. They said they were on the road from New Orleans.

This is a rare old bar we found a decent coffee in. This one was City of Olympia. I believe it was about 90 yrs old, and used to be an old pool hall/ bar. Now its open early till late, with live music most nights. Alas we found it on our morning out of town so no night time visit for us there.
