Washington's San Juan Islands offer peaceful beauty of water, pines

Posted on by

FRIDAY HARBOR, Wash. -- Before bed on the night I arrived in the San Juan Islands, the island chain that sits as far northwest as you can go in this country before hitting Canada, I decided, as any reasonable person would, not to set an alarm clock.

The water. The pines. The floating home I had rented for three nights. They would conspire to wake me when seeing fit. The wild, peaceful northwest corner of the United States would be my alarm clock.

Sure enough, as orange light sliced through the blinds the next morning, the alarm rang: the squawk of a sea gull perched just outside my loft bedroom. I peeked through the window, but it was already gone; instead I saw a hulking green-and-white ferry streaming slowly away from the island.

If you go ... San Juan Islands

The most common route to the San Juan Islands is driving 80 miles north of Seattle to the car ferry in Anacortes, Wash. (wsdot.com/ferries). The ferry price for a car and driver from Anacortes to Friday Harbor starts at $35.15 and to Orcas $29.65. Flights also are available from Seattle via Kenmore Air (kenmoreair.com)

There are a handful of options for floating accommodations in the San Juan Islands, including Wharfside Bed and Breakfast (1-360-378-5661, thewharfside.com) and Rick Thompson and Wendy Beckler's floating home (1-360-317-5188, tinyurl.com/fridayharborboat), on San Juan Island.

Several companies offer overnight sailing charters, including Schooner's North (1-360-378-2224, sanjuansailcharter.com) in Friday Harbor and Emerald Isle (1-360-376-3472, emeraldislesailing.com) and Kruger Escapes (1-360-298-1023, krugerescapes.com) on Orcas Island.

I dressed, made a cup of coffee and stepped out into the marina. The air was impossibly bright and clean, and I breathed it deeply as I strolled past bobbing boats with names like Just Right, Sea Hunter and Si Horse. All was quiet. On the boat next to my floating home sat a woman with an airy, bronzed hairdo, a quick smile and a raspy laugh. It turned out to be my landlord.

Wendy Beckler was reading a beat-up paperback as her calico cat, Kismet Ariel Braveheart -- Kizzie for short -- sauntered around her feet. Ms. Beckler told me about life on the islands, where people rarely lock their cars or homes but are diligent about locking their dumpsters because getting trash to the mainland is among the steepest expenses of island life.

She said that she and her husband, Rick Thompson, sleep on the houseboat I was renting for much of the year, but when they find a tenant, they head to a patch of land deep in the island where they park their camper. The land is so densely tree filled, she said, you'd never know you're on an island or even near water.

Infrastructure damage hampers relief efforts in flood-hit Solomon Islands, thousands of people in need

Posted on by

ABC Aftermath of Solomon Islands flash flooding as locals inspect the damage and house that was carried downstream along lower Koa Hill into China Town.

Emergency officials in Solomon Islands are working hard to provide food and shelter for thousands of flood victims, with damage to infrastructure hampering response efforts.

The United Nations Office for the Coordination of Humanitarian Affairs (OCHA) has confirmed 17 dead in the disaster, with the toll expected to rise.

Flash flooding has swept away entire residential districts and at least 23 people are missing.

OCHA has estimated that 12,000 people have been affected by the flooding in the capital, Honiara, and 37,000 affected in Guadalcanal Province.

Several days of heavy rain caused the Mataniko River to burst its banks, washing people and buildings out to sea.

Solomon Islands was also hit by a magnitude 6.0 earthquake late on Friday night.

The National Disaster Management Office (NDMO) says there are no immediate reports of damage from the quake within Honiara, however it says communications with other parts of the country are poor and the situation is unclear.

Graham Kenna from Save the Children in Solomon Islands says the weather is clearing, but the risk of a cyclone developing remains.

"We have been able to get further afield from Honiara city to do some assessments from the outlying areas," he said.
