Robinwood Beach

Down the hill from the cabin, at the end of a winding path, was the beach.

We spent an afternoon looking at rocks and strange creatures. We learned what lives in the water at the aquarium, so it was neat to see things in real life. Here is a rock covered with anemones and barnacles. They are hiding and not showing their true colors during low tide.

It was fun to discover geoducks. They liked to spray us with water as we walked by. Dj tried to catch a couple, but was never fast enough.

Apparently, they can sink down in the sand pretty far. Plus they are supposed to taste really good...

There is no sand on the Puget Sound, only rocks. And not to far off, the forest.

I've never even heard of a geoduck so I looked it up. They are kind of gross but it's pretty cool you saw them & tried to catch them.
