7-8, Ferry Fun

One of the things we miss most about living in Puget Sound is the ferry rides.  There's nothing like pushing away from the shore and soaking in all the saltwater air and scenic vistas with the familiar hum of the engines below.  We were excited about our first ride in six years and also sharing the experience with Emalie.  I've divided this day into two post entries:  one for the ferry ride and one for the rest of the day we spent on the Kitsap Penninsula.  How about that-- another BEAUTIFUL day in Seattle!

Mt. Rainier to the south.  What a sight!

Does Nik look like he's in his element or what?!

He's not even caring that I'm taking his picture.  That hardly ever happens anymore!

Random stranger and his dog.  There's just something about this photo that I love.

Ahh.... a container ship!  If I dust off the cobwebs in my mind I could probably recall how many days I spent sailing on ships just like that.

Grandma and Nikolas.  So sweet.

Emalie is getting to that age where she will not cooperate for a photo-- especially a group one.   Oh well!

You've got to be fast and catch her on the fly!

So much to take in.

I think she's captivated with the ferry.

I know Grandma is!

Nik, too!

A ferry ride is even better when you spot other ferries on their routes.

Wow... I took a lot of pictures in a 30-minute ride, didn't I?  No wonder it's taking me so long to edit all my trip pics!  Stay tuned for the rest of our adventure on Kitsap!
