The above picture is a view from our Condo.
We were in Olympic National Park for a very long weekend. There was so much we could have gone to see… but our kids didn’t want to. They wanted to just chill and hang out at the Condo a majority of the weekend.
I have gotten to the point in parenthood that I just don’t care to fight and force them to do/see something because no one will enjoy it then. So we stayed at the Condo for a majority of the weekend. Honestly, It was great and relaxing (The Condo was large and 3 stories).
We swam. and swam. and swam. My kids sure love to swim. They could probably just swim all day on every vacation. We had to the pool to ourselves every time we went.
We played in the rec room at the Condo – they had billards, foosball, ping pong, shuffleboard, chess, so many fun things to play.
Then we hung out in the room and watched movies and tv – enjoying the view as well. It was actually quite relaxing and enjoyable.
We did convince them one night to drive into town. We looked up a little ice cream shop that made specialty ice creams and it was delicious! Well worth the trip there. They weren’t thrilled with leaving the Condo, but once they had the ice cream, they realized the drive was worth it!
So our trip was a good mixture of everything. We got to see lots of Olympic National Park on our way to the Condo. We then spent lots of time relaxing and just enjoying being together at a slow pace at the Condo. Best of both worlds and we really enjoyed our time up there! We can’t wait until we can find the time to go up there again!!
