We all scarfed our cookies down while Holmes found an opportunity to practice his knife skills.
Pokémon fever
Thank you, Tito, for knowing more than we do!
Winter village side track
We ended up staying far past anyone’s bedtime trying to find everything on the bingo card to enter a drawing for an unknown prize…everything including five individually placed tiny rubber chickens.
Ready to climb the hill
And Holmes now gets to pick which bike he wants to ride on the back of each time because he grew out of his buckled kid seat!
She made it
Meryl made it all the way up the hill(s)! We walked a couple of times, but she did it all on her own. Woohoo!
Let’s bike to the aquarium
Enter, the rain. (Post holiday adventure today, we’ll blog backwards another day!)
We made it
This year, we have been to aquariums touching the Pacific Ocean (Seattle here and Monterey, CA) and Atlantic Ocean (Norwalk, CT), and international waters in Vancouver, BC (also, the Pacific Ocean)!
Post sunset scene
We’ve never been to an aquarium in the dark!
Sun not required
New experience! We learned about manta rays via virtual reality with moving seats!
Back up the hill
Gear bike for the win! Meryl made it halfway up to the pizzeria for dinner! Two free-riders and an extra bike for the rest of the way up:)
But first…
A lawn nap to power up.
