Beach Weekend

This weekend we headed down to Long Beach ... Washington, not California. It's about three hours south of Seattle by car, and basically comprises a bunch of beach resorts located on a peninsula between the Pacific Ocean and Willapa Bay (picture above). Unfortunately, there really isn't any swimming allowed because of the cold water and rip tides. But it's a great place to relax and even fly a kite if you like.

We stayed at a little place called the Shakti Cove.



The dogs had a great time at the beach.





We also tried out the forest loop trail at Leadbetter Point State Park, at the very tip of the peninsula.





I think we all agreed (including the dogs) that next time we we'd like to stay a bit longer! [Marc]
