I found this picture on our camera while scrolling through photos this morning. Clinton must have found us to be a funny sight. Last I remembered -I was reading, Jesse was researching India and the kids were talking about their day. 🙂

The dogs wanted to lead the way, but they had to contend with Lennon since he always wants be first!

We hiked Dragon’s Tail today with our friends, Clinton, Roni, Augustus and Ripley. It was beautiful. In total, it took us about 3 hours. We ended up at a place called Big Wave Bay where there were only tiny waves in sight. Still, the surfers were out there in droves waiting.
Everyone was famished so we stopped at a restaurant and ordered way too much food. It was good, but so spicy that the kids and I could hardly eat it. Cleared out our sinuses, though!

The root systems on some of the trees in this city are like nothing we’ve ever seen before. They hang down from the walls bordering the highways. If you hurt the tree (break branches, carve into trunk) you can get arrested! The sidewalks are kind of skinny and you have to navigate around lots of people- the city is very populated.

There were tons of people milling about. The views of the skyline are spectacular.
