Mid-week weekend



As a rare treat, my sister, Dd and I had a mid-week getaway to Bainbridge Island this week.   Taking the ferry is a good way to quickly get out of town to places that are actually quiet, which we all needed.     Tuesday we walked about 3 miles in Fort Ward Park, which had nice beach views, stroller friendly paths and decent shade on a warm day.  Then we stayed in a cute airBnb and Wednesday we walked 3-4 miles in Gazzam Lake Nature Preserve, with Dd in a carrier.  We had a good look at  bard owl and got to see it fly twice and enjoyed the easy wooded terrain.    All of this walking is nice for talking and was supposed to lead to napping on the go for Dd.  That aspect didn't work well though and he only napped for 35 in the stroller and 20 in the carrier.  Nonetheless he was a trooper and clearly loved looking at our natural surroundings and pointing at things.
