what a fun-filled day today was! we walked to lake union this morning for breakfast at portage bay cafe. there was quite a bit of a wait, but it was worth it! they had awesome food, and it was all organic, natural, good-for-you stuff. just my kind of place. then we walked down to the fountain right on the lake where you can sail wooden sailboats on sundays. the kids loved it! gavin's boat was named "sandpaper" and brooke's was named "poseidon." we all got tons of exercise chasing those sailboats around the big fountain. i was a little surprised by how much brooke got into it. i think she enjoyed it even more than gavin. it was a beautiful day to be in lake union doing something we'd never done before.
this evening giuliana, randip and jay picked us up at our hotel, and we went to ballard for a fun evening at the beach followed by dinner right on the water. we'd never really been to ballard before so we enjoyed seeing a new part of the city. the beach was crowded with tons of people enjoying one of the most perfect days of the summer. the views of the olympic mountains across the water were absolutely stunning, and we had a beautiful sunset to top it all off. it was the perfect way to say goodbye to some of our dearest friends.
