Today was lovely day.
The kids slept in so when I woke up I read my book and enjoyed the
quiet, which I have not had a lot of during this trip. After breakfast we went hiking in thick
redwood forest. It was so peaceful and
beautiful. We drove on an old dirt road
through the forest that was once a stage coach road. It was a beautiful drive past a lot of giant
redwoods. We went to the beach at
Crescent City. The weather was warm,
maybe in the 80s. The kids wore their
swimming suits this time and played in the water. I wore jeans and a t-shirt and read my book
on the beach. They played for hours and
it was so nice to relax. After our beach
time we walked to the lighthouse which is on an island and only accessible
during low tide because the road to it is underwater the rest of the day. We did one last redwood hike before we headed
back to camp to have dinner. We bought
firewood so we made a big fire and made smores.
The kids sure love to make a fire.
The kids got along really well today and our day was just about perfect.
