Day 2

We were not able to connect to the internet last night so that is why we couldn't post. But tonight we are connected again.

We slept so good at the Sytsma's house. After a yummy breakfast of sweet rolls and cereal, we loaded up the van and said good bye.

Day 2 was going to be our biggest driving day so we wanted to get a good start and left by 8 am. Uncle Andy and Darrick figured out a new route the night before that would not take us through morning traffic and bridge closures in San Francisco. So instead we traveled through wine country. It was very beautiful, with more grapes then we had ever seen.

We stopped and had lunch at a KOA. Our picnic lunch was good but it was really hot, almost 100 degrees. After lunch we stopped by a tree that cars could drive through but we couldn't fit because of the pack on top of our car. But we got out and took pictures and the kids loved the big trees.

As we got more into northern California the temperature started dropping all the way down to 60 degrees and there was a lot of fog.


Around dinner time we finally pulled into our motel, had dinner and went to bed!
