Seattle, WA, 9/7-9/11

by Mitchell Lettow | Sep 17, 2018 | trip

  • Exploring Uncle Steve and Aunt Lee's urban homestead

  • It is such an amazing spot!

  • Lee sharing the fruits of her labor; Toby wishing we would share more with him

  • Everbearing raspberries were amazing! Emily would have ate all the raspberries and passed out in the patch if we let her.

  • "We're married now, I think this is how you're supposed to eat grapes."

  • Sizing up some of Aunt Lee's mighty fine cookin'!

  • Lee's famous "gato gato"

  • Some friendly wits and wagers were played, with only a little bragging

  • Maya was our host dog! (Thank you Sam and Marta for really hosting us!)

  • We took the ferry on cousin Sam's birthday to the Kitsap Peninsula.

  • The Puget Sound

  • Hiking through the sword ferns and big coastal trees to get to the beach.

  • Low tide on the beach

  • Lots of little treasures around

  • Plenty of snacking

  • Then we drove to Hamma Hamma to get some fresh oysters! Setting wasn't too shabby ;)

  • Preparing for the sensory experience that is eating oysters

  • Awkward family photos

  • Some raw and some roasted oysters

  • Sam reassuring Emily that this is a good idea

  • She actually went for it! She at two, but I can't see her eating them again. Mitch and the rest loved them though!

  • Hiking Discovery park with Uncle Steve.

  • Discovery Park is over 500 acres on the Puget Sound, and is right in Seattle's city limits.

  • Great views of the Sound!

  • "Lime bike" is Seattle's bikeshare program and can be seen all over the city. You can rent one to get to your location and leave it wherever you want!
