Whidbey Island

We just got back from our trip to Whidbey Island to run the Langley Half Marathon. It was a fun trip. We had never been to Whidbey Island before and Langley was a cute little town. They had an arts fair this weekend, so when we arrived on Saturday we walked around the arts fair for an hour or so. We bought a few small things. I got a small framed photograph for my cubicle and we bought some jam and checked in for our race. We had sandwiches at the Useless Bay Coffee Company. They have good sandwiches! We stayed at a place called the Boatyard Inn and it was very cute.

On Sunday we had the race. Their motto is "Gently Rolling Hills." ha ha, very funny. On every hill there was a little sign that said "Langley gently rolling hill." Someone has a sick sense of humor. Needless to say, it was not our fastest race. Still, we may go back next year and see if we can do better! Here are some photos of our trip :)
