Lake Tahoe

We had the alarm set for 06.30 this morning and after breakfast me and P drove up to Woodland to Ns house. There we changed to their big truck and the five of us drove up to South Lake Tahoe. A lovely drive which took us a little over 2 hrs. 

As we were getting close to Tahoe there was snow on the ground and close to 0C / 32F. Brrr. We had a great lunch in the harbor overlooking the lake. Then we took a gondola up to the top to get an amazing view of the area. Up there people where skiing and snowboarding and it was quite a winter wonderland. 

On the way back we passed Squaw Valley (or Olympic Valley as it is called nowadays) which was quite fun to see. They had a memorial sign as we entered the valley with the Olympic rings and the fire. Neat!

Then we stopped for dinner right outside Sacramento before we arrived back at theirs to get our car and drove back to Vacaville again. 13 hrs later we arrived back home – tired – but pleased with a great day! Thank you for everything!
