The Island of Vashon

and the space needle :) Uncle Buster met us at the zoo to guide us to the Vashon Ferry. We didnt have time to stop seeing as the Ferry was not going to wait for us ;) so as we were driving past the Space Needle, which i wanted to see so badly (?) i had to take the picture from the car as we were trying to keep up with Uncle Buster in the crazy Seattle traffic.




This is Uncle Buster - he is Gabe's mom's brother. We like him ;) He works as the Chief Engineer on one of the Ferry's (i can't remember which one, but when i find out i will put it on here) not this one - another one ;). Anyhow, Eli and Cora both thought this was very very cool...

* when i was telling Cora that we were going to go on a ferry she thought i was talking about a fairy and became so excited - her eye's lit up and she said with such wonder in her voice..

"We are going to ride on Tinker Bell???"

i then told her no a boat and killed her spirits.. so i am glad she had a great time on the "fairy" ;)*



They took us to one of the beaches that has a light house on it and we went exploring..

we found forts made out of huge logs....clams shells that covered the beach....



had to get a picture with "Aunt Shawnie" who we LOVE!

and more forts.
