Summer in Seattle
It really was Bainbridge Island. We had a great home leave. The weather was absolutely beautiful, sunny and hot everyday with a great breeze. Our trip started out a bit rough with all of us being/getting sick. The flight over went very smooth. The kids played quietly on the plane and we slept little. It took about a week to get on the right schedule. We spent our days on the beach looking for shells, crabs and other wildlife, went on boat rides, played and ran around on the grass, visited some of Colin's family, had a daytrip into Seattle with the ferry to the Aquarium and overall just had a nice relaxing time. Below is just a random selection of pictures.
