Ferry's are so fun. :)

Today was definitely the day for adventure. Since my father is here we decided to hop on a ferry to Bainbridge Island and go sightseeing a bit. Now, when we say sightseeing, we mean driving and looking at gorgeous nature. We are SOME TIMES ones for the touristy things, but on the whole a drive around on a beautiful island is quite fun. :)
So, we slept in this morning and took our time getting to the ferry. Once in line for the boat we did have a bit of time to wait and all of a sudden I realized we, yes me and my two parental units, were having a conversation about Fairy wings. If any of you know my father you can probably see the connection between waiting for a Ferry and Fairy wings, but the funny part was that we literally spent a good two minutes discussing, seriously, Fairy wings. Yah, we are a strange bunch. :)
Once on Bainbridge we got a full day of beautiful island. We went from one end to the other and off to the sides as much as possible. :) This island is so lush and beautiful it's hard not to fall in love with it.
One little side adventure, while in search of a place for dinner, we stopped at a Casino and Hotel/Spa. I believe my father was thinking that usually the Buffet at Casino's is usually inexpensive, forgetting that I can't eat at Buffets. There was another couple restaurants in the Casino as well, so we sauntered in just to check out the prices of the eating establishments. Now, me, Dani Coles had never been in a Casino. Nope never. Quite the eyeful of people that look very bored but unable to leave. :) I did get a dollar from my father though and play a nickel slot. No judging. I didn't win anything. Total loss, except for a little bucket list check mark. :)
Anyhoo, we ended up eating some Southwestern food in Winslow. Well, I ate like 5 bites of my food and I was full up, but it was yummy. :) Then back onto the Ferry returning to Seattle. We came home and I immediately took a nap. Now, it is time for family scripture study and prayer and then back to bed. Even though most of the day was spent in the car, I'm toast, just from the long all day outing. Toasty Toast. :) So, good night my dear friends and family and we shall hear more adventures tomorrow. :) Dinner at Bs.
