Big Bear Lake

On Wednesday July 29th we decided at the last minute to take a mini vacation to Big Bear for a couple of days. It was a breath of fresh air.

This is a picture of the sunset on our drive up the mountain to Big Bear

We stayed at the Northwoods Resort in the Village


On Thursday we went to Alpine Slides and rode on the bobsleds and go-karts.

Waiting in line for the go-karts

Noah lost his phone on the go-kart and we were able to return 2 hours later to find it under the seat in the go-kart.

We took a drive around Big bear lake

We went to the Discovery center

Hannah, me, Richard and Kaleb

Noah was pouting in the car because at this point we hadn't found his phone yet

Next time we are going to do this

we rented a boat for a couple hours and cruised around the lake

the rock at the top says tip me, it really looks likes it's about to tip

Kaleb and Noah jumped out of the boat to climb these rocks, but only Noah ended up jumping off them

Hannah waiting for the boys to get back in the boat

Usually when we are on a boat we have a lot more people

We ate at this little restaurant called Saucy Mama's it was so good!

After dinner we went out for ice cream and told Hannah

don't forget to brush your teeth later with the chocolate toothbrush
