Washington beaches are known for their rocky shores, pebbly and shell-polluted, coarse sand. The Evergreen state doesn't have much for weather either. Most days, the forecast for the lush state is partly cloudy with a chance of rain.
However, when the sun decides to play peek-a-boo, the beaches fill up fast. On this abnormal scorching summer day, Bella, who's not fond of beaches, finds herself at Alki with her best friend. She's trying to get to water when a yellow volleyball smacks her upside the head. Surprisingly, it's the cute lifeguard, Edward. Suddenly, Bella's thankful that she was dragged out.
Author's Note:
Time for some more factoids.
Alki Beach is located in westernmost part of West Seattle. It juts out into The Puget Sound, and has a great view of the Seattle skyline. The word Alki means "by and by" in Chinook Jargon (aka chinuk wawa).
