Bellevue and Lakes

We drove into Bellevue which is abut 15 miles away to check out the sights.   We also got us an RV spot at the Travelers RV Park for the next two days.  We will be about 15 minutes from Seattle.

These roads are so curvy....everything is so green and beautiful.

After Bellevue we toured the suburb of Medina.   We found that to be pretty neat since we have a Medina, TX and we live in the County of Medina.  We went into City Hall and the Receptionist has a sister living in San Antonio.   She said she had just visited San Antonio in November and would love to move to San Antonio.   We warned her about the hot weather in S.A.  This morning was very cool.   Yesterdays high was about 77 and the high today was 78.  We love the weather.

We walked down the path from the office to take some pictures and just spend some time there.  Their office sits on Medina Beach Park on Lake Washington.
