A sunny day in West Seattle

Today was the lowest tide of the year. I started my day at Alki Beach to take a peak in the tide pools.


I saw lots of critters and learned a thing or two from the beach naturalist.



Later that night, we took a stroll through Schmitz Preserve Park. It's hard to believe you're about 5 minutes from the beach and less than 10 minutes from downtown Seattle all while being in the middle of an old growth forest.



On the way home, I spotted this. Someone else was out enjoying the day as well. Tea time, what a lovely way to end the day.
