Hiking




This is what Flamingo missed out on today:





Bri also missed out.



We slept in this morning after watching So You Think You can Dance last night.  At about 10:00 we went to Whole Foods (the Meijer in California but healthier) and got some snacks and some great sandwiches for lunch!  Then we set off for Big Basin (California's first state park)!  After a long tummy sloshing car ride up a mountain we felt a little nauseous, but everything was fine after our yummy snacks. And  for dessert we had some facinating, fruity, fun-filled, flavorful, Peruvian chocolate.  Then we tryed a mini loop trail that was just to show you how how the rest of the park was gonna be like.  We quickly decided that we were pros and needed something a little more adventurous.  The trails we planned on going on were called Seqouia, Wastahi, and Sky Meadow.  We started off!  After backtracking some we found the waterfall we were looking for we decided to head back a different route but after a long time on Skyline to the Sea, we got nervous and headed back. We finally went back the way we came and followed the highway.  When we got back to headquarters we asked them if it was posible to go that way and get back in time?  Aparently if we had just gone a little further we would have seen it.  We were kind of exausted after a hilly ten-k and finished our sandwiches then started back down the stomach sloshing mountain.  The veiw up there is awesome!  Then when we got to our hotel we were kind of full so we went out for some fro-yo at Yogurt Land:-).  I had lemon cookie and cheese cake ice cream with chocolate sauce, reeses, and toffee.
