We were off to Vegas after CA.  Was able to meet up with a college roommate and then we picked up my mom who joined us for a couple days.  Hit Zion park and Bryce Cannon quickly before we were on our way to Moab where Jeff was meeting a few friends for a mountain biking weekend.

We couldn’t pass by without a stop to Disneyland!  We saw most of the princesses but Elsa and Elena were down at their Florida home ?

These are mostly from the lower coast…  Near Morro Bay, Santa Barbara zoo, Venice beach, etc.

 We stayed mostly along the coast for Oregon and California but we did dip in to hit Yosemite!   Here are mostly Yosemite pictures with a few coastline nearby.  No whales from the shore like in Oregon but I did like these seals!  

 We hit a unique petting zoo in Oregon.  Got to pet a bear and a snow tiger… But all Ryder really wanted to do was hang out with her new donkey friend!  On the coast of California now going in and out of redwoods and a great coastline.  We’ll dip inland to Yosemite next and then back to the coast!

The Oregon coast was definitely one of my top 3 favorites so far!  We could see whales from the coast, ATVs around the sand dunes, starfish near the shore and just a really cool coastline!

Here’s a few more pictures that didn’t load before

And we’re back in the US.

 

A variety of pics from Canada.  Mostly Vancouver and Whistler (which was awesome).  Includes a random Staples truck in Vancouver for my friends back there and my new all time favorite ice cream place!  I had it 4 times in two days!!!
