Take beautiful pictures of the sunset

It's all about nature here in Blaine. There are the wild flowers, the sea lions just hanging out on the barge, the seagulls, the herons flying, the eagles...What more? There is the beautiful sunset! Take a beautiful picture of the sunset. As for me, I took my daughter and...
Enjoy the flowers in Blaine
joiwatani Says:
There are so much wild flowers in Blaine especially at the resort in Semiahmoo. Fields and fields of wildflowers! It's so much fun walking over there and have the great feeling of living like those in the drama series "Little House on the Prairie".
Peace Arch Park
Bellinghamster Says:
Park on the US Side, take the road beside Denny's at the last I-5 exit, to the end at the Peace Arch State park. Walk around, take pix of the Peace Arch, Being 1/2 in US & 1/2 in Canada. BC side has best gardens. Spend just 1/2 hour or have a picnic. It's ok to walk around...
Semiahmoo Resort: The fish and chips and the 4th of July barbecue

We drive over 100 miles just to come and eat the barbecued salmon and the fish and chips! There is nothing like having a barbecue with a group of people, drinking your lemonade, eating your fish and chips while listening to a live band...The view is beautiful!
Every year, I...
Semiahmoo Resort: You won't belive this is in Blaine
Bellinghamster Says:
This is a typical "Northwest" restaurant. I would classify it as "fine" dining. Usually we go for the Mother's Day Champagn Brunch. Salmon is certainly one of the best things on the menu. Also a good selection of NW or other wines. The bar has a nice setting. The whole...

Barbecue on 4th of July
Every 4th of July, the Semiahmoo Resort in Blaine offers barbecue to the public. For $20 per person, you can have your own table waiting for the fireworks of July!
I bring my family here to spend the 4th of July. It is very relaxing for me. I don't have to deal with the traffic going to the city to watch the fireworks, spend time cooking or barbecuing. I come here to relax, go for a walk, watch the sunset and the wild life...and, voila, there's food waiting for me!
Most of the residents nearby come here to see the fireworks, too. They just lay down their match, have their chairs and wait for the fireworks.
I saw some families bring their trucks with loads of fireworks and just do their own fireworks on the beach!

Smile, you're on candid camera!

Along the North end of Blaine there are a series of towers with cameras (including nightscope). They are watching the border for various smuggling activities.
There is also a camera on I-5 to check border line-up conditions. That's the link listed below (SOW -DOT Cameras in the Blaine area).

Don't Buy Canadian Money in the States!
Bellinghamster 25 reviews
Miscellaneous: US money is worth much more in Canada than Canadian money is worth in the US. Use a credit card for best results, otherwise Safeways or the Provincial liquor stores give the best rates. Rates should run near 50% more C $ for a US $.

The wildlife at Semiahmoo Resort

While I was driving at the strip of Semiahmoo, I saw some deer passing. It was amazing that there is wildlife here! I also saw some sea lions and herons on the Marina side of the strip. It was beautiful!
