Golden Gardens

We went to Golden Gardens Natural Reserve Beach in Ballard with the in-laws. We had a great time! It was a really really low tide, so we got to see a lot cool things.

Rachel rode in the Ergo carrier with her Oma until she got tired of the wind.

Hannah rode on Glenn's shoulders so her feet didn't get super soggy.

A sea pen (it looks like a quill when it's under the water). These are pretty rare for the area--and we saw three! It was one of the lowest tides of the year.

A sea cucumber!

We had a great time at the beach. The day was windy but not horribly cold. It was a fun time.

What is your favorite sea creature?

That's so awesome! I would love to look at awesome things in tide pools and low tide-ness and such. I guess we have yet another reason to visit now!
Oh, and Rachel is super cute when sleeping. Also when awake, but very precious when asleep.
