A couple weekends ago we took a day trip to our favorite island. The only way on or off the island is by a Ferry and it's one of the girls favorite parts of the trip. The Ferry ride is super quick maybe a 15 minute ride...but it's also very busy so we have to get to the Ferry dock at least 30 minutes before departure (both ways) otherwise we risk not being able to board.
Our first stop is always The Snapdragon to grab some delicious
vegetarian pastries, then to Café Luna for the best latte's in the
State. Our favorite is a Caramel Hemp Latte but one time they have a
Lavender Honey Latte with Hemp that was so bomb. Ellie decided to try a juice (and actually liked it) and Finnley had a cup of cold milk that she somehow managed to get a giant milk mustache from. Séamus got to hang out in the high chair and it was just the best ever!
After we sat in the Café and enjoyed our coffee, read some books to the girls, we made our way back
into the car to drive across the street to the park in town. We bundled
up the kids so they could stay warm while they played outside. The
girls had an absolute blast on the tire swing and climbing on all toys.
Séamus was bundled up and hung out in the stroller, I tried to get him
into the baby swing but he wasn't having it.
After playing at the park, Séamus and I walked to the restaurant (he had
fallen asleep in the stroller) for lunch to put our name on the
waitlist. Thomas got the girls in the car to move it again closer to
the restaurant. While we were waiting for our table we made our way to
the Pharmacy to play in the toy aisles and check out all the cute island
wear. We may or may not have purchased a couple of onesies and a sleeper for Séamus...
We
had our lunch. Ellie had Fish and Chips, Finnley ate crackers, Thomas had a burger, and I had Eggs Benedict. Séamus finally woke up half way through the meal and Thomas offered to go and change his diaper (bless him), and then we hopped in the car to
head out to the beach! The girls made friends on the beach, made sand
castles, got soaked in the water, and Séamus just hung out with me on a
log.
Then it was time to head back to the Ferry and we fully enjoyed our day on our favorite island. On the way home we checked out airbnb and have decided that we're going to rent a house for a couple of nights this year so that we can fully explore the island and see all that it has to offer!
