Redwoods!

We spent Sunday night at Wayne's dads house and Monday morning we headed another 5 hours to Crescent City on the coast! We were able to watch the sunset that night, and it was beautiful.


Not everything about this trip was wonderful. Before we even got to Crescent City, we stopped at a rest stop. While Shea and Wayne were using the restrooms I decided to put Rylee up on this stump. Well, I lost my balance with Rylee in my arms and fell up against this stump. As I pulled my camera out of my pocket to take the picture I realize that I landed right on the screen. So I apologize for some of the pictures. They aren't centered, but at least my camera still works! haha.

We stayed at the KOA there in one of their Kamping Kabins. It was perfect for us. It was right in the Redwoods and just what we wanted!

I can't get enough of the Redwoods! I absolutely love it there. It felt like you were in another world. They are so beautiful and mysterious! This is the road we took to go hiking.


Along the road we spotted this Redwood. It was struck by lightning which burns the middle and makes them hallow.


Beginning of the trail.





I can't get over how HUGE they are!


Wayne and his banana slugs! When he was a child, he was dared to lick one. To his surprise it turns you tongue numb! He wouldn't do it again, I even dared him!




We spent a couple hours at the Ocean. It was super cold. But the Shea didn't mind.


She got so wet in the water that her pants and underwear started to fall down. It was so FUNNY!





In Crescent City, there is a place called Ocean World. The sea lions were their favorite!
