RAINIER BEACH

SEPT 11, 2020


THIS DATE BROUGHT US TO OUR SIXTH DESTINATION

WE SPUN THE WHEEL FOR THE UNUSUAL DATE SPOT OF RAINIER BEACH

WHILE WE KNOW WHAT YOU'RE THINKING, "WHERE THE HECK IS RAINIER BEACH?" THIS SPOT HAD SOME HIDDEN GEMS


GOOD FOOD


WE FIRST HEADED TO JUDE'S OLD TOWN FOR DINNER, 

BUT THEY WERE CLOSED DUE TO COVID AND SMOKE. 


THAT BROUGHT US TO THE MOST AMAZING 

NEAPOLITAN PIZZERIA 

"PIZZARIA PUULCINELLA"

THIS WAS ONE OF THE BEST PIZZAS 

WE HAVE HAD IN A LONG TIME. 



THE AMBIANCE AND SERVICE WAS QUITE MAGNIFICO!


DESSERT



 

FROM DINNER WE HEADED TO KING DONUTS FOR DESSERT. HERE YOU CAN ORDER, NOT ONLY YOUR FAVORITE CHOICE OF SUGAR DOUGH-DELIGHT, BUT ALSO PURCHASE TERIYAKI, THAI FOOD, ESPRESSO, AND EVEN HAVE YOUR LAUNDRY PRESSED! TO SAY WE WERE IM-PRESSED IS AN UNDERSTATEMENT! LOL!


OK, NOW FOR THE TRUE HIDDEN GEM OF RAINIER BEACH!

WAIT FOR IT. . . IT'S FREE. . . 

IT'S AMAZING. . . 

IT'S. . . 

THE KUBOTA GARDENS! 

(ALTHOUGH IT WAS TECHNICALLY CLOSED DUE TO SMOKEY WEATHER, WE RISKED IT ANYWAYS TO ENJOY THIS AMAZING PARK THAT IS OPEN DAILY TO THE PUBLIC!)








WE ALSO STOPPED BY PRICHARD BEACH

FUN-FACT: THIS USED TO BE AN ISLAND 

BEFORE THE SEA LEVEL 

OF LAKE WASHINGTON WAS DROPPED IN 1917


OVER ALL WE GIVE RAINIER BEACH A THREE-DONUT, ONE DRY-CLEANING RATING
