Above – Amma and Sparty Oakland bound! Last year I took Maya on a special Oakland outing to see her cousins. Now it was Sparty’s turn (a couple weeks ago).<\/em><\/p>\n

On the plane … Dorito’s and video games were all it took to keep this little one happy.<\/p>\n

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

Below – First BART ride. The first BART tram is free, from the airport to the BART station. As soon as we got off the tram, a train was waiting and one of the workers said we could get on it, so we did. Right about the time the doors closed, I realized we were headed south – the wrong direction. LOL!! I was a bit frantic because I knew Robb was waiting for us (on his lunch break) at one of the stops. The best part of this mis-adventure was we got to go down and up a couple extra escalators, which Sparty thought was really cool and a lot of fun.<\/p>\n

\"\"This BART went past the home of the Raiders. We were headed the right direction this time.\"\"<\/p>\n

After we met up with Robb, Sparty feel asleep in the car so I dropped Robb off at work and drove to Robb’s house. After a nice little nap,\u00a0we packed a lunch and went to the park.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

Then a bike ride on the new bike Kando got for his birthday. Alo’s bike didn’t have training wheels, but this one\u00a0has a handle bar rev mechanism that makes a way cool noise so it was the bike of choice.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

Then a bbq dinner consisting of ribs, corn, salad and salmon.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

It’s always fun to go to bed in someone else’s bed. There are so many things to make a kid smile here. The best part of this bedtime was that Alo and Kando would be arriving early in the morning and the cousins would have a whole day to play.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

I spent almost all day alone with these little angels (ages 3, 4 & 4). I think it was pretty brave of me to take them to iHop…<\/p>\n

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

After iHop we played. A lot. We rode bikes, played games, played cars, built train tracks and did all kinds of fun stuff, indoors and outdoors. I even got all three of them to take a nap. That was heaven …<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

Galoshes. The latest indoor fashion.<\/p>\n

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

It was a very short one-nighter and now back at the airport waiting in the security line wishing I had taken more photos.<\/p>\n

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

Look what someone left parked inside the airport!<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

Goodbye Oakland!<\/p>\n
