My friend Kim and I took a day trip through Bainbridge Island to the town of Poulsbo where we had a wildlife kayaking tour. I had heard of Poulsbo (mainly because of the brand Poulsbo RV), but did not know it was such an adorable place. Before hitting the water, Kim and I stopped for morning coffee and pastries (I love a good maple leaf shaped shortbread!) in the Bavarian themed town.
During our nature tour, we got to see so many seals (they are sooo adorable and even came to play with us in the water!), starfish, crab and other crustaceans in the water. (Kim is an amazing photographer and snapped the following with her waterproof camera)
Afterwards, we stopped at the small Marine Center and looked in the tide pools before grabbing a quick bite to eat and walking around town (who doesn't love awesome vintage clothing and a good bead store?).
Fay Bainbridge State Park was our last stop before getting in line for the ferry back to Seattle! We loved seeing the Disney themed kites in the sky and sitting on the beach and listening to the calming noise made when the waves brought in and washed away the rocks on the shore. It's the simple things that make this life so great!
