• Day Two Yreka California

  Day two was another get up early day.  We *never* set alarms.  We just got up when we were restless.  We grabbed continental breakfast, and then headed out.  We again arrived to our next days destination quite early.  Checked in, and went to find some place to explore.  What we found was a LOVELY park that we spent several very happy hours exploring.  It had a small lake that we walked around, and got to see wild life we hadn't seen before.

  But first...CALIFORNIA border.

  
  Jamari was VERY unimpressed.  This does not look like California he said rather empathically.  We assured him it was.  This theme continued from him for several days.  ROFL.

  Shortly thereafter Rob announced we should start seeing Mount Shasta, but there was hide clouds.  We couldn't, and he was quite bummed.  Until the kids shouted that they saw it.  So we had to stop and take this rather funny picture.

  
  Do you see Mount Shasta.  (hint) its not the brown mountain down low.  *snicker*

  
  Beautiful lake to walk around.  With several fun pelicans we spotted.

  
  The mighty explorers. 
  

  Our favorite find.  We watched these guys for a LONG time, and then eventually one swam away.  which just made us all the more excited.
