Whidby, Again!

 When we went to Leslie and Andre's wedding we had planned on coming early and having some family fun on the island and maybe even staying the night, but as it turns out we are poor planners, and I don't have a very good sense of how long it takes to get from Kirkland to the Mukilteo ferry station or of the fact that when people say it will be about a two hour wait for the ferry they are telling the truth. So we got there about one minute before the wedding started. On Labor Day we decided to try again and took the ferry back over for a little day trip.

We did some fun things like go to a store full of every adorable animal puppet you could think of (Fox puppets! So cute), buy an disgusting iced americano, immediately throw it away, and buy another at the next coffee shop, go to the beach that is pictured, and go to a park where Tyler played a shooting game with a little boy. Thankfully she has not continued that because somebody starts school tomorrow, and no guns at school!

Even though the water is much more freezing in Puget Sound then in Lake Washington, there are a lot more fun and interesting things to decorate sand castles with like these clam shells.

A the end of the day we sat outside and had pizza, looking across the water toward Camano Island. It was beautiful, but Ty was pretty cold. I was fine while fox was sleeping on me in the front carrier, but then I forgot he was there and he woke up.
