\n

I had a fun trip to Oakland last week to visit Robb and the boys. Here we are waiting for my luggage.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

\n

After the airport we went to the Oakland Zoo.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

This was a tight squeeze.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

Outside the Zoo museum at the top of the gondola ride.<\/p>\n

\"\"\"\"\"\"<\/p>\n

Below – Inside the California museum.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

I wonder if we have a state insect???
\n\"\"<\/p>\n

Ice cream sandwiches hit the spot.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

\n

These kids love clams. We walked (kids rode their bikes) to an Italian restaurant down the street from Robb’s place where they serve a huge bowl of clams for $6 at happy hour.
\n\"\"<\/p>\n

Kando’s clam talks.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

So cute… Every once in a while Alo will randomly get up and give Robb a hug and say “I love you.”<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

Silly funny face.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

\n

Getting ready to go camping and trying out the battery operated lanterns.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

\n

This is the campground where we stayed at Big Basin Redwoods State Park. Note: Kando’s got his belly button… <\/em><\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

The Redwoods are so beautiful …<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

Trying out the headlamp while eating raisins and fruit. That’s our tent cabin in the background.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

Child-safe bug repellent before hiking.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

Sitting on one of the three bridges we crossed. We hiked for 2 hours and the kids were troopers. Alo hiked the entire distance! Kando didn’t do so bad. He hiked a lot of it.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

There’s nothing like some good healthy stick collecting!<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

… and bugs!<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

I’ll leave you with these last two photos. It was great spending this time outdoors in nature with the boys. Absolutely beautiful!<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

Swimming hole.<\/p>\n
