Alki Summer
Posted: 2005-06-20 10:01pm
Recently moved back to the Alki section of West Seattle, near the beach, and although the traffic is kind of a bitch when the weather gets nice, I do like being near the water. If I head 1-1/2 blocks north I'm on the long sandy beach that's one big 'scene' and fairly crowded on the weekends ... if I go 3 blocks SW I get to a much less crowded beach with some nice views:
Looking into South Puget Sound from Alki
Looking south, little view of Mt. Rainier's peak
People out enjoying the rays
Looking North across Puget Sound to the Olympic Mountains
Looking NW across the Sound, Seattle-Bremerton Ferry
Eastern end of Alki, looking at downtown Seattle, football stadium at far right
