Monterey, Lake Tahoe, Mammoth-2014 Summer Trip

We started our two week adventure out with a week in our favorite spot in California, Monterey.  We rented a home again and did all our favorite things.  Our first stop was Asilmar beach after stocking up on groceries.



 We then headed to the Monterey Warf and Aquarium to say hi to the otters, penguins and fish.



 Had to stop to see the bag piper at Spanish Bay.

And visit Carmel Beach with its white sand and view of Pebble Beach.





Then we headed to our favorite organic farm to pick some berries before dinner.


The seal lions are plenty here along the central coast and joy to watch.  

Next we headed up to Lake Tahoe and wow it was beautiful.  Grandma rented a home for us to stay at next to where her side family reunion was taking place and it was so pretty.  We really enjoyed our hikes to the lake, hanging out with family and thunder and lighting storm that was thrilling.


On our long drive home we stopped at Mammoth mountain and explored.  We enjoyed that so much we decided to go back next year to celebrate Dad's birthday there.  We found a park along a stream that was really nice.  The air was crisp, people nice and we stretched our legs for a long time.  It was a great family adventure.
