6/30-7/2 Pismo Beach

A trip to California wouldn't be complete without a few days at Pismo Beach. We headed to Pismo on Saturday morning and stayed until Monday. We had told the Swansons that Pismo was notorious for cool temperatures and freezing cold water. We were accurate about our prediction of the freezing water, but we were pleasantly surprised by the weather. It was sunny both days we were there, and you might even say it was warm!

We spent a lot of time sitting on the beach, we walked around town and of course, we ate at Splash Cafe! My grandparents were there for the weekend as well and they introduced us to the domino game Mexican Train, we are hooked! Rod, Julie, Alyssa and Lindsey joined us for the weekend as well, it was great to get to spend some extra time with them. I guess I didn't take very many pictures while we were there, because I feel like we did so much but I don't have mnay pictures to share. One of our favorite things that we did while we were there was actually on our way out fo town. We stopped by Avila Valley Barn. For those of you who live in California and have never been there, you need to go. They have animals that they will let you feed, you can pick your own ollalieberries and raspberries (if you don't know what an ollalieberry is, you MUST go find out!), and they have a huge market to purchase locally grown produce and freshly baked goods. We could have spent hours looking at the food and hundreds buying it, but we only stayed an hour, but came away with plenty of snacks for the rest of our trip. Of course, I have no pictures! Sorry!

Enjoy the few pictures that I have!

Next stop, Fresno...or maybe we should say Fres-YES!
