Maya's first beach trip

We are learning that spring time in Seattle is possibly the worst season on the Pacific Northwest. Today however is one of those days that makes you think, wow, there might not be a more strikingly beautiful city in the continental U.S.

What a perfect day for a beach trip with Maya. Question is where to go?

We chose Alki beach to mix it up with all the Seattle folks just waiting for a day like this. Turns out 60 degrees is still a little chilly. Good thing Maya had her pink shield. The sun felt great for all of us.

Mama, being overprotective mama bear made sure Maya was safe in her bubble while withstanding the winds from the sea.

Maybe next time it will be warm enough to play in the sand and dip our toes in the sound. For now we have one tired baby.
