This date combines three really great things- a scenic ferry
ride, pizza, and famous ice cream. The
adventure begins at Pier 52 along the Seattle waterfront- the Seattle Ferry
Terminal. Purchase walk on tickets to Bainbridge
Island and enjoy beautiful scenery as the ferry taxies you across Elliott Bay. Once you arrive on the island, you will have
plenty of time to explore the shops and beauty of the small town of
Winslow. Along the way, grab a slice (or
whole) pizza from the cute little pizza shack, “That’s A Some Pizza”. There is both indoor and outdoor seating available
along this quaint tree lined street. As
you continue your walk along Winslow Way, there will be plenty of boutiques
selling art and clothing. An ice cream
cone is a perfect ending to this fun date.
Stop at Mora’s Creamery for some fresh churned dessert. I must warn you, there are so many delicious
and unique flavors that it can be difficult to decide which one you want! In addition to traditional flavors there are
unique flavors such as lavender, ginger, and grapefruit. One of my personal favorites is mora
(blackberry). Make your way back to the
ferry terminal to return to Seattle. I especially love coming back in the evening
because the Seattle skyline looks amazing!
This is also a great family date, double/group date, or fun
activity for out of town guests.
Our spouse and families should be a high priority. We can deepen and strengthen our
relationships as we simply spend time together.
I love this quote from President Dieter F. Uchtdorf, “We build deep and
loving family relationships by doing simple things together, like family dinner…
and by just having fun together. In
family relationships love is really spelled t-i-m-e, time. Taking time for each other is the key for
harmony at home. We talk with, rather
than about, each other. We learn from
each other, and we appreciate our differences as well as our commonalities.”
Take some time this week with your spouse to have fun and
show your love.
