Seals...

Well we did it! We survived our last "big" vacation of 2010 (and probably our last for a long time).  We broke from the usual tradition of visting Yellowstone and decided that this year we were going to go to Yosemite instead. The boys prepped for the trip by watching Yogi Bear cartoons and thought we were headed t o Jellystone so really it didn't matter much where we went.

We took the scenic route to get there and traveled along the Pacific Coast Highway. It was such a pretty drive. Espcially the farther north we got. The best stop by far was at the Elephant Seal rookery near Piedras Blancas.


 The beach was absolutely covered in seals! The boys thought it was awesome. And stinky! Oh Boy it was stinky! We mostly saw the big males who were either fighting or lounging it the hot sand sloughing off their winter fur. Dillon and I kept a lookout for babies but didn't spy any.


 Maybe I can convince Blair to head back in December when the babies are born. But I doubt it...

You have a cute little family! A trip to CA sounds so nice right now. Anyone in your family headed up here this July?
