Vacation

I just took a road trip with my family from Eureka to Kernville, then to South Lake Tahoe. On the road to South Lake Tahoe, we stopped at a Carl's Jr. It just so happened to have The Green Burrito (The Restaurant that sometimes shares the same space). I tried the Southwest Tacos and fell in love with them. I wish we had one in our Carl's Jr. in Eureka. We have nothing comparable to this restaurant in Eureka. The tacos tasted sooo fresh and it wasn't fried. Everything at Taco Bell is fried or just upsets your stomach. The Green Burrito was delicious! In South Lake Tahoe, we dropped into a Baja Fresh... They have no microwaves, no freezers, and no canned food. You can see how they prepare EVERYTHING. This food was delicious too.
On our trip in Tahoe, we rented bicycles and rode through the paved trails meant just for walking and bike riding. The trail goes through the woods, to various towns, and even takes you to the beach. The ride was exhilarating and the rentals were only $9 hour per bike. In Tahoe there are tons of places you can rent Kayaks from but there is one that is more affordable and on a beach that less tourists go to. Its at Baldwin Beach, and Timber Cove Marina runs the Kayak Rental. It saves you between $5 and $10, depending on how many you are renting. You do have to pay to get into the beach but there is a parking lot before the pay booth and you don't have to pay the $7 fee. Oh, and no dogs are allowed at that beach. Most beaches in South Lake Tahoe have day use fees.
While we were looking at places to get married, we were told about Sand Harbor. After the 30 minute drive there, and the 30 minute wait in line... in our CAR, we were told that its $12 to get in. All we wanted to do was look at the wedding site! They said we could look without paying but we couldn't PARK! So we drove by and couldn't really see anything. When we thought that our guests for the wedding might have a different entrance rather than waiting 30min to get in, we were corrected. They have to wait in that same line. They have reserved parking but, you have to wait to get through the line and the people in front of you only get in as others leave the parking lot. So who knows how long our guests would be waiting. Then we asked about booking.... They don't book til the 1st of January and the way they book is by first come first serve. People line up, in their cars, waiting for them to open. They take calls last. That's Ridiculous!
Anyways! Overall the trip was fantastic. I love Lake Tahoe, and would love to move there.
