California Vacation - Day 2 - Santa Cruz

Day 2 of our vacation found us relaxing on a Sunday morning at the Woods home. After a leisurly morning reading the newspaper and playing Katamari on Playstion 2 we ended up in beautiful Santa Cruz Boardwalk. It's a Boardwalk located right on Santa Cruz Beach with amusement rides, games and great fair-type food. Craig was pleasantly pleased to find fried cheesecake.

This year the boardwalk celebrates it's 100th year in 2007 and is the only remaining major seaside amusement park on the West Coast. To find out more about the rich history of the Santa Cruz Beach Boardwalk click here:

Hallie of course had a ball. She loved riding all of the rides and even wanted to ride the "BIG" kid rides. It was hard for her to understand that she is too little and that is one word she hates to hear about herself.

Here she is enjoying a ride on Pete's Dragon

Hallie would have stayed all day if she could have but even with all the joy she brings there is only so many times you can watch her go round and round on rides. And there is a limit on how much fried grease Craig can consume in one day.

More to come tomorrow or in a few days.

Ciao, M.
