Day 43 - Samish Bay, Washington

Today we also took a drive to Bellingham, Wa. and south to Samish Bay where we visited the Taylor Shellfish Farms. They specialize in farming oysters and are one of the largest on the west coast.. Did you know that it takes 3 to 5 years to grow an oyster for harvest? Really surprising, considering that you can get them for $.25 each in any bar in the US.
