Isn't there something amazingly summery about swimming in a lake? Maybe it's the Rocky Mountain Canada girl in me. If you were going to swim in a lake where I grew up it better be smokin' hot on shore, or you would be in danger of hypothermia!
Luckily the lakes around here are refreshingly cool and Lake Washington itself has some great family beaches. This is a favourite in Bellevue, Clyde Beach. Great grassy hill, fun "pirate" playground, a dock, roped off swimming area for the little ones and even a lifeguard!!!
