Today we ventured up to Oakland, the only part of the bay we haven't seen yet. We decided to go to the zoo and the temple. Oakland was a lot more beautiful than I thought...at least the parts that we saw. We also experienced the first day of paid vacation that either of us have had since we have been married, and that was our favorite part of the day...we were getting paid to play!! Woo Hoo! What a great day.....
T*H*E Z*O*O
Ava was the best tour guide ever!
They had a little play park and Ava loved climbing on the rope spider web.
Ava really liked to point out that the elephants had big bums and were stinky.
Then we ended the day on some rides.
T*H*E T*E*M*P*L*E
The Oakland Temple was beautiful. There was a big terrace around it and so many beautiful flowers. You could see all the way to San Fransisco up on the terrace. The picture doesn't show it, but you could see the golden gate and downtown of both cities. It was really beautiful.
This picture is for Tamar...Palm trees and yellow roses always remind me of my sister...how fitting they just happened to be in the same shot! Love you Tamar!!
And my favorite flowers....We had a really nice day in Oakland, and have now seen most of the bay area. So big and so beautiful and the weather has been amazing. We thought of you Sokimna and Rico!!
We love it here!
