Getting away to Port Townsend
We were sitting around yesterday deciding what we should do with the day (and trying to avoid the dreaded to-do list...) when Kevin came up with a great idea. It's been forever since we got out of town on a whim, so why not head to Port Townsend and get a hotel for the night?
Yes please!
30 minutes later we had a room booked at The Swan and were headed for the 11am ferry to Kingston. It was such a nice and unexpected recharge.
While waiting for our room we roamed around town and grabbed lunch at Courtyard Cafe; amazing deli style sandwiches and salads.
After checking in we walked around town, went shopping (we found some cute baby clothes!), and stopped for coffee at a little place near the water. We ended the evening with dinner at T's Restaurant on the point.
Yes, there was a lot of eating, but when you're pregnant, that's about all you can do!
After an amazing 11 hours of sleep (this kid's taking it out of me!) we went on a walk down to the beach, then headed to breakfast at Hudson Point Cafe. Their crab cakes with poached eggs are to die for.
We headed back around noon and while we didn't miss the traffic, the ferry wait gave us time to get a sweet tooth fix in Kingston: a brownie sunday for Kevin, and the root beer float for me!
It was a great Memorial Day weekend.
Time spent at a BBQ with good friends on Saturday, an unexpected getaway last night, then a BBQ with Anne, Ian, and the kids tonight made for a perfectly relaxing weekend.
Hope everyone's weekend was just as memorable!
