Kingston

Saturday we took Payton and Logan on their first Ferry boat ride.  It was a crazy morning getting ready and when I asked Payton to get dress she said see that timer it says not right now. After we got ready and out the door it was a rush to get to the ferry dock to try to make the 9:40 ferry but we were too late. It was actually a good thing because Payton got to watch people unload the ferry and start to load plus look at the boats on the water. The sun was shining, you could see the snow capped mountains all around and the water just sparkled – we were ready to go and enjoy this beautiful day.

Once we were on the ferry she took a walk with grandma Verver to explore the boat. Grandpa and daddy went to get  a little food.  While we rode we ate ferry fries and Payton got a cookie that she ate all the M&M’s out of which is how she eat them. Mommy and daddy get to eat the rest. We got close we watch the boat come into the dock and then watch a few Motorcycles leave before we disembarked.

Our first mission was to find a place to eat since both kids were hungry. We looked around and settled on Drifters a burger place. There was a Creperie called J’Aime Les Crepes   but it was busy and with two hungry kids it just didn’t work this time but we just might have to go back.

After eating we walked down to the little beach . Payton collected shells, climbed on logs, wrote in the sand with a stick. We ended up with a few cups full of shells and some great pictures.

Then we walked back up to have some ice cream before heading back to catch the 1:30 ferry. If you ever go to Kingston you should go to Mora ice cream shop.117
Payton had chocolate with sprinkles, Kevin had strawberry, grandma had raspberry and Grandpa and I went with the Irish cream. It was so yummy and Payton loved it.

We headed back for our second ferry boat ride back. Logan was all smiles until I had to put him back in the Baby Bjorn and Payton had fun exploring the ferry.

It was the perfect sunny day to go for a ferry ride ,play at the beach and eat ice cream. There are things I thought of while we were there that we will have to bring on our next ferry ride and make it even better. Goodbye Kingston we had fun and we will be back.
