A little hike, a little beach and a lotta fun.

Friday night, we were debating whether we'd hike Little Si, Mount Si or Mailbox Peak (three rather strenuous hikes) - we picked up hiking snacks and figured we'd decide in the morning. Morning came and our sleepy butts couldn't get moving quick enough. By the time we got up, got ready and had some breakfast, it felt like too late of a start to go big. So we opted for one of our go-to's: Discovery Park. (If you recall, I discovered it almost three years ago!) A little hike, a little beach and a lotta fun.

I discovered Discovery Park

I don't know how I've lived in Seattle for over 7 years and never made it to Discovery Park until now. It just doesn't add up - I like hikes (check), beaches (check), new running routes (check), short drives (check), driftwood forts (check) and the outdoors, in general (check!).

Sunday afternoon we went for a little picnic and hiking adventure. We even packed some hot cocoa and marshmallows - yum! When we were headed back to the car, we must have taken a few wrong turns. It was odd - we passed a sign that said that the Visitor Center was .5 miles, so we walked in that direction. Then the next sign said 1.2 miles! I still don't quite know how that happened...

Next up, Alki! (because, strangely, I haven't been there either...)
