The boys were very excited to take their first ferry boat ride!! Having grown up in Washington State, this was something I did all the time, but it was so exciting to share it with the boys. And they were lucky to get to experience it with Nana, Auntie Jake and Uncle Jason too!
As you can see, Ethan had a lot of fun running and jumping all over the deck.
Wyatt was a little overwhelmed by the size and noise but eventually warmed up to it.
Bye-bye Seattle.
Ethan had no fear.
OK, everyone look up (Uncle Jason's awesome funny faces version of a picture).
Hello Bainbridge Island.
Wouldn't you love to live here?
First stop was the Native Indian Museum. Jack and Auntie Jake really liked it inside but the little ones got restless. Luckily there was a cool little trail to follow outside that they could explore.
Next stop was the site of Chief Seattle's grave.
The boys really seemed to enjoy this stop.
Next stop was Port Gamble on the Kitsap Peninsula. This was a cute little town with old houses and cute shops.
Right on the water.

The old-fashion General Store (I could spend lots of time in here if I didn't have little kids!!).
Then back to the ferry with a stop for lunch first. Photo courtesy of Jack.
Back in line at the ferry terminal for our ride back to Seattle.
You just can't beat this view of the city. I feel very fortunate to have grown up in such a pretty city (when the sun is out) right on the water.
