Stanford University - Palo Alto, CA

We met up with our friends, the Walkers, to enjoy lunch at Veggie Grill followed by a long stroll through the Stanford campus. We even splashed around in several fountains. It was a great day!

Junipero Serra County Park - San Bruno, CA

We didn't want to go straight home after school so we made a quick detour to Junipero Serra County Park.

San Pedro Valley County Park - Pacifica, CA

San Pedro Valley Park is a 1,052-acre area embracing the middle and south forks of San Pedro Creek, which are Steelhead spawning grounds, this park is nestled amongst the Santa Cruz Mountain range and the foothills of Pacifica. The park offers group picnic areas, family picnic sites, a self-guiding nature trail, hiking trails, a visitor center, and views of a seasonal water fall.

We spotted this park on a map and decided to check it out since it is just over the hill in Pacifica. We had a nice picnic lunch in the park. We didn't walk for very long because the paths were a little too rough for a wheelchair. The visitor center was a nice surprise and worth a thirty to forty minute break.

Bol Park - Palo Alto, CA

Mommy wanted to show us a walking path that she frequents with friends while on her lunch breaks. We stopped for quite a few minutes to visit a donkey named Niner at the Palo Alto Community Donkey Corral before heading into Bol Park. The grass was nice and cool on this very warm day.


Here's a link with more information on Niner and Perry:

Los Altos, CA

We took a much needed break from painting our condo to grab lunch and coffee. Somehow we ended up all the way down in Los Altos. We had lunch at La Boulanger and followed it up with coffee at Red Berry Coffee Bar. Before heading home, we wandered into Adventure Toys and Teacher Supplies.
