Sierra-at-Tahoe

We Left our apartment at 8pm on Friday evening to make the 4hour trip to South Lake Tahoe, North california. There were around 20 of us went down to ski for the weekend, the rest were staying in a cabin but we stayed in a hotel down the road with the children.


I took a 2hour ski lesson then skied for the afternoon it was great. Aaron didn't bother with a lesson because he'd skied before and he went down a slope with a drop of 2km along roughly 4km - scary!! Hopefully we'll get to ski again some weekend.

The scenery was class around lake Tahoe as you can see from the photos!Aaron and the children went for drive while I skied and Chloe got to play in the snow- not for very long though it was -10C !!!

Aaron and Chloe

Happy Hollow Park and Zoo

Saturday was just like a summer's day back home!!!So we Took Chloe swimming in the morning and then the 4 of us headed to Happy Hollow Park and Zoo.

It's only a 15minute drive from our appartment and has lots of animals that children can look at even feed! Even though Chloe was tired she loved it and Reuben liked looking at the animals too. There's also a play park and a merry-go-round which Chloe didn't want to get off!!

Hi Everyone, Happy New Year! We've now safely arrived in San Jose and got past the 10hour flight with Chloe and Reuben - they were both very good!! Chloe was kept occupied watching barnyard on the plane.

The city we're staying in is called Santa Clara, it's really nice and there are two playparks about 1/2mile away so Chloe will enjoy that.

Haven't really done much yet! Aaron has had to start straight into work and the children and I are still suffering from jet lag!!

The weather has been quiet good so far might even take Chloe to the out door pool tomorrow if it's nice.
