So Christmas has come and gone and the New Year is here. We took a family trip to Monterey to start off our New Year and we had soooo much fun! We arrived on New Year's day just before sunset, so as soon as we (okay, Jason) got the trailer all hooked up we hit the trail to try and catch the sunset at the beach. We didn't quite make it to the water's edge to see the sun set, but needless to say it was a beautiful walk, and the girls even got in a little sand play time.
We decided to make the next day the aquarium day since it was a little rainy. There was so much for us all to see and even fum areas for the girls to explore and be active. They both had a lot of fun, as did we!
We also took along our bikes with seats on the back for a family bike ride. Saturday was a beautfully sunny day so it was a perfect day to enjoy a bike ride through town. We started at Monterey State beach and rode through the town on the trail down to Lover's beach. Of sourse we stopped at the wharf to stroll the shops, and get some goodies, and have lunch. Who can't resist a little clam chowder in a bread bowl when at the wharf?
One of Jason's favorite Monterey activities, a favorite childhood pastime of his, was Dennis the Menace park. SO we ended our trip on Sunday with a trip to the park. We had a blast playing there with the girls and then had lunch in the trailer and headed home. Such a fun getaway and what better way to bring in the new year than with the family! We are so blessed...

Sounds like a great trip! Be thankful that you live in such a climate and beautiful land to allow for January get-aways like that one!
You could come back?? or maybe a second home for winter time?
Uh, hello? Anybody out there? I'd comment on a more recent post, but there are none. C'mon...
