Our first time to Lake Sammamish State Park, no idea why it's taken us so long to check out this place. It's just one exit past Bellevue on I-90 and it is GORGEOUS. Warm beach with a big, shallow wading area. The amazing playground with a zip line. Tons of parking, and clean restrooms.

This is what the beach looks like on a random weekday morning, when everyone else is at SCHOOL. Just us, some babies and a big white goose.
