Cali Christmas, Part 3

Even though we were all sick, my parents graciously watched the boys for 3 nights so we could have our anniversary get-away! It was a-mazing to have that much time together and I am so grateful! The boys had a great time at Camp Grandma & Grandpa while we spent time in Solvang and San Luis Obispo.

Wyatt was not happy to see us go, but he still had a great time.

Gorgeous drive up the coast!

First stop: Solvang! We drove by Jim's grandparents' old house.

And we enjoyed walking around the town and enjoying the quaint feel.

Jim went to a few shops that were his good ol' favorites and picking up some treats.

Next morning we stopped at Olsen's bakery and Jim got to chat with the owner and an old family friend in the back. And of course picked up some kringle and special bread.

We headed up the coast and stopped at an old college haunt, Klondike's Pizza.

Then we headed to Avila Beach and enjoyed the gorgeous scenery.

We had to see the Madonna Inn - so PINK! :)

Then over to Morro Rock...

At Spooner's Cove we enjoyed the beautiful views, rocks, and sounds of the waves.

That night it was the Apple Farm Inn for dinner!

I was able to get a great hamburger, with fruit and tea. Yum!

The next day we walked around SLO and in the evening saw Star Wars at the theatre in Arroyo Grande.

We also got to drive up to where Jim used to hang out and help, at Webb's place. He wasn't there but Jim knew we would be welcome to walk around so he showed me around.
