A tourist group got an extended stay at the B&B Family Farm, 5883 Old Olympic Highway, on June 26 when their Freedom Tours NW, Inc. bus got stuck halfway in the driveway and Old Olympic Highway after taking a sharp turn.

The highway was partially blocked as farm owners and the bus driver attempted to free the vehicle.

Several of the 18 passengers made the most of the two-hour stay by touring the farm and enjoying the fields.

At about 5 p.m., the bus was freed by a tow truck from All City Autobody of Port Townsend.

As passengers readied to board the bus, many said they enjoyed their time in Sequim/Dungeness area that day after visits to the Olympic Game Farm, Black Bear Diner and the lavender farm.
