Our destination was Poulsbo, however we ended up a few other places throughout the day.
This morning, we put the boat in the water at Day Island Marina in Tacoma. We headed north, under the Tacoma Narrows and up through Colvos Passage. The water was like we were on a lake. The boys enjoyed sitting in the back with the wind in their faces! Chris and I enjoyed seeing some of the sights and scenery we have missed since spending so much time on the water with our 38' boat.
We pass Blake Island on the way to Poulsbo, so we decided to stop in there for a visit. We took a cruise around the area, let Colson throw rocks in the water and then let the boys play at the playground.
We made it to Poulsbo and decided to have a picnic lunch up on the grass overlooking Liberty Bay. After lunch, we headed to the famous bakery for treats. So good and so many things to choose from!
I was able to walk around quickly and check out a few new shops. I'm thinking a trip back to Poulsbo without kids may be in order!
We headed to Port Orchard next, and walked through their Farmer's Market. Colson headed straight for the Kettle Corn! They have a great park there and the boys had fun playing on the cool toys while we watched and soaked up the sun.
From Port Orchard we headed south, back to Day Island Marina. Colson dozed under the front of the boat and it was funny to see his whole body bounce up and down as we hit some waves. He did great all day for only a very short nap.
The tide was very low today, so we ended up staying at the Marina for an early dinner and then taking a quick ride over to Wollochet Bay and back. By then the tide was high enough (barely) to get the boat out.
We all had a great day and it was fun to hit so many great spots in one day. We'll be back to all of them.
Enjoying every moment.
