Trip down memory lane

One day while we were in WA we made a trip to the town I was born in. Ben had complained multiple times how he had never ridden on a fairy, so we drove to Seattle, and caught the fairy there that took us across to Bainbridge Island. It was a little chilly since it was pretty early (ok, and because it's Seattle) but still a fun little ride.
Ben & Paige's first fairy ride!


Still re-couping from Grace & Kyle puking on the drive up
Is that Leonardo DiCaprio? 
After driving through Bainbridge Island, we headed to the cute little town of Paulsbo for a quick stop at the bakery.

Then we ate our yummy treats while driving through Bremerton and the old neighborhood. Ben got to see where I first lived, and now thinks my parents' current city is super classy in comparison :)

 Next we stopped at Seabeck to fish for "pogies" (small fish). We did this all the time when I was little and then my dad would find random creatures to teach us about. I love the memories this brought back; I felt like I was 5 years old again.

We all always learn some strange new fact
Finally we headed home over the Narrows bridge (another first for Ben). It was a fun trip down memory lane...I feel so connected to my roots ;)
