Tide Pooling

One overcast morning, we decided to go tide pooling. It was amazing to see some beautiful creatures up close. It became a game to turn over rocks and see how many sand crabs were underneath. We saw deep purple and orange star fish all over the rocks. Matt and the kids were brave and waded out to see what they could find in the water. All was well until the limpits "attacked" Anna. (She was OK, though.) After we were all a little chilly and wet, we thought a visit to one of the local Starbucks would make our morning complete. (We even saw the Statue of Liberty on our way.) Thanks, Matt and Gail, for being great tour guides during our visit to Washington!
