2nd Day - Arrival at Cali

We are now completed with our second day. And let me tell you, our second day was a full one. We had to wake up at 5CST (3PST) to eat breakfast and get on our plane. We took that plane to Phoenix and had about a 20 minute delay there while we waited for some people to get on/off. It's different being in Pacific timing since when we arrived in Arizona it was 7AM so we actually didn't spend anytime flying.

During the flight we saw many amazing views of God's creation...




After we got off the plane we picked up our rental mini-van and headed to the Intel museum. We enjoyed reading about the Intel computer chip.

We left the Intel museum at about 1 PST and some of us started feeling the hunger of the early morning (we hadn't eaten since 3PST...) There were songs song of







But we had to get out of San Fran before the rush hour hit so we had to wait on our food. We crossed the Golden Gate Bridge and stopped to inspect it and take a few pictures. Because of all the Smog we could only see the bottom part of it. And because of the cold windy day (a mere 60) we didn't stay long.




(note: we finally got our food at 3:30PST, 12 hours since our last meal... no one told us that because of flying out here we had to make up saving money somewhere else...)

We're making our way to to the Redwood Forest which isn't too far from where we are staying. Our trip to the beach yesterday was short, the dip was short and little. We found out that the water feels much colder on the pacific ocean than it does in Florida. It felt like Ice Cubes!! There's definetly going to be no body surfing as long as it stays that cold.





Well another day has started and we must be off, it felt good to sleep in till 7:30PST so I'm all rested. I might just two naps today as opposed to three yesterday...

Till next time!

God Bless!

You just have to go all of the way into the water and let your body get numb.....then you can enjoy the waves :)
