Saturday/ ferry to Hansville

Hansville via Bainbridge Island — The trip to Hansville after the ferry landing at Bainbridge Island across from Seattle. Hansville is at the north end of the Hood Canal, the canal running from the bottom left all the way to the top into the big Puget Sound body of water.

Bryan and I went out to Hansville on the Kitsap peninsula for Saturday. It’s a combination drive-ferry across the water-drive trip to get there. Either of the Edmonds-Kingston or Seattle-Bainbridge Island crossings can be used, and this time we used the one to Bainbridge Island on the way in.

On the way back we took the Kingston-Edmonds ferry.
