Vacation: Getting Around
For our vacation, we have been traveling in Celeste's Suburban. It is getting a bit old, but still serving us well. It gives a good amount of comfort and space for 5 of us traveling together. Despite the room in the back, we still found it helpful to have a little more room. We bought a roof-rack mounted bag for a prior trip which we used this time too. We put the stuff that won't melt or be hurt by the heat up top (the bag is waterproof too).


The girls have taken a lot of photos, but I don't have any on my computer. I will have to share some later.
The trip so far:
Monterey
- Beach visit / photos
- Cannery Row
- Point Pinos Lighthouse
- 17 Mile Drive / Pebble Beach
San Francisco
- General City self-drive tour
- Fisherman's Wharf
- Boudin's Sourdough Factory
- Ghiradelli Square for Ice Cream Treats
- Cable Car rides
- Chinatown
- Bay Boat Tour
- Lombard Street
- Coit Tower
- Muir Woods
- Film Locations ("Mrs. Doubtfire" house, "Full House" house)
- Community Garden / Geocache visit
Still planned:
- Golden Gate Park Surrey Rental
- Golden Gate Park Japanese Tea Garden
- Yosemite Valley Tour
- Yoeemite area geocaching
Hard to believe that there is more behind us than ahead of us now! The schedule is very tight so that we can give Ina as much to see as possible. Also, we are hosting a pancake breakfast fundraiser at our local club on Saturday. We have to drive home on Friday to be ready for that.
