redwoods day 1

Tuesday morning we left San Francisco to head up the California coast!  Bryce cracked me up reading the sports section at breakfast. 


We ate breakfast in a cute little seaside town so we walked out to the beach before we got back on the road.  We are beach people and we just don't know what to do with cold weather at the beach in the summer.


We had planned to do most of our driving along the coast but the clouds weren't clearing so it wasn't that scenic and seemed to be a lot longer route so we headed inland for a quicker trip to the redwoods!


We were all amazed at the size of these trees.


The pictures surely do not do them justice.



The kids came up with some kind of photo op at every turn and every new tree.




We drove through a tree!


Bryce bought a collapsible fishing pole a while ago and he was excited to bring it along on the trip in case we came up on any mountain streams on this trip.


He caught one and was one happy boy!


I took this picture on our drive out of the national park.  These trees really are incredible. 


Stay tuned for more redwoods tomorrow!
