Jim and I felt it was time to venture out with another road trip. This time we headed out to Yosemite and San Fransisco. It was an awesome amazing trip. I kept thinking how nice it was to have just our little family for 10 days. Here is a little snippet of our adventures from July 1st to the 10th. Yes, Lizzie did get home from Girl's Camp on July 1st also. She was home probably a total of 4 hours before we were off again.
Day 1- We left our house around 5ish and traveled about 3 hours to Angel Lake Nevada
Day 2- Driving day and then a KOA campground. The views were gorgeous. Not sure why I didn't take too many pictures. For some reason I only took like 2 pictures.
Day 3- We were able to camp in Yosemite and explore Yosemite. Wow! Absolutely gorgeous.
Day 4- More gorgeous beauty at Yosemite. A couple wrong travel decisions, a intimidating drive in the dark around a curvy mountain and a much welcomed stay at a hotel at 1:30 in the morning.
Day 5- The kids wanted the beach and we gave them a pretty good one. Point Reyes was so gorgeous and the waves were crazy and loud!
Day 6- Brought us adventures at some of San Fransisco's tourist spots. We visited the Golden
Gate Bridge, Lombard Street, Pier 39 and Ghirardelli's.
Day 7- More San Fransisco fun. Chinatown, Alcatraz Island, eating seafood at the Bubba Gump restaurant and the Golden Gate Bridge at night.
Day 8- Muir Woods. Such a pretty pathway among the giants of the forest
Day 9- Driving from the luscious greenery of Northern California to the desert of Nevada.
Day 10- HOME!

A beautiful room number when you get to it at 1:30 in the morning :) |

Every morning at our campground the girls would do what they called Olympics.
They even made up routines and would perform for us.
