Oh no that would not be a fun trip then
But Anacortes is very nice and safe! It's always rainy or foggy there in the fall and winter and since it is at such a low elevation it very rarely will snow. You could hike around all day out there, lots of nice areas. You could take the fairy to the other islands to explore as well, or go whale watching, also lots of great food and family owned businesses! It is a very outdoorsy kind of place
if you take a trip in the spring you could stop by and see the Mt. Vernon Tulip Festival as well. They have miles and miles of them and it's really cool to look at. Just be prepared for traffic since it is only a 2 lane road D: And omg it is like that here when it snows too hahaha. I am guilty of this xD but I rarely drive anyways.
