After drinking and shopping off to Solvang. It was a quick trip because we got there late and most stores were closed. However, we were able to find somewhere to have another beer!

Last stop of the night was at the Madonna Inn. We stayed in the Rock Bottom room. Dear husband was in heaven finally a "man" room, his "cave" room. The entire room was covered with real rock. The waterfall shower was unique. It was a very interesting experience.

Visit with In-Laws

Our first stop on our vacation was with my brother-sister-in,sister-in-law and niece. We were able to have an adult dinner at Orange County Mining Company, (http://www.orangecountyminingco.com/) while my niece was at home with her grandpa. The mud pie was the biggest hit of dinner.

The next morning my niece was able to experience her first geocaching. Mind you she is only 2 years old. Honest she didn't really care but the rest of the adults were into. We left a geo-bug that we picked up on Phoenix.
