Lake Tahoe- Day 1- July 19th




















Today we made about a 5 hour drive to Lake Tahoe. We stopped on the side of the road to catch up with the Renwick's who were leaving Tahoe. That was fun to swap some stories and see everyone. Then it was back on the road. We stopped at Safeway in Tahoe and did our shopping. We got a peak of Lake Tahoe and it looks gorgeous! First things first though, getting to that campground. The campground is called Fallen Leaf Lake Campground and it is about 2 miles from Lake Tahoe. It is a beautiful campground, full of trees and meadows. The spaces are nicely spread apart. And it has a hike leaving from the campground. Noah and I immediately took a hike from our campground to the Tahoe visitor's center and got some information. Then we took a short hike to the Fallen Leaf Lake. Actually we rode our bikes. The loops are paved so it is nice for riding. The kids all got to go fishing so they were excited. It is a beautiful lake with snow on the mountains surrounding it! We came back to camp for dinner and we treated ourselves… we had steak, mashed potatoes and salad. It was so great! We look forward to spending time here!
