Staycation : Zoo and Owen's Beach

 Our friends, the Streadbecks, came up for a visit. While they were here we had a little vacation at home. The sun was out in all its glory, so we hit up the Point Defiance Zoo and Aquarium.

They had a special exhibit on poop. The kids all thought it was great. Big boys included.

The walrus was so cute. He hung out and watched us through the glass as he sucked on his flipper. The kids were ecstatic to have an animal so close and interactive with them for so long.

After the zoo, we made the short drive to Owen's beach. It was a perfect spot for the kids to throw rocks to their heart's content. And for the parents to sit and watch them and all the other weirdos on the beach.
