Marina Park
The sun's still trying to come out, but the kids are running, parents are picnicking, the dogs is trotting, ducks waddling, and Frisbees are flying at Marina Park on the Kirkland waterfront. This place bustles with activity in the summer, with rich teenagers working on their tans on one of the many private boats docked here, and tourists boarding the Argosy boat for a guided cruise of Lake Washington in order to catch a glimpse of Bill Gates' house. Local residents, meanwhile, rock to the free, live music performances from the Music in the Park concert series held in July and August. Just be careful where you step--the ducks freely leave their muck behind on the grass.
