This past weekend on our 24 hours off, me and five other friends headed to Lake Tahoe. We camped at a local campsite (I couldn't tell you which one and there's like a million in Tahoe). But first, we spent the afternoon around Tahoe. After setting up camp, we headed to the Lake and visited Kings Beach. It was BEAUtiful! Lake Tahoe is such a pretty place. I thoroughly enjoyed my time there. I dipped my toes in the water for a bit and the laid out on the sand. There were lots of people enjoying themselves as well. Lost of boast parked as close to the shore as possible, and lots of happy children playing in the water. It was nice to sit back and relax a bit after a long week.
Then we headed out the the Truckee Carnival in Truckee, Ca. We were a little disappointed, though. It wasn't much of a carnival. I mean, there were plenty of booths and rides, but it was so small. We basically went, walked from one side to the other, rode the ferris wheel and then left. Not very exciting, but a cool little stop, I suppose.
By then it was getting late, and we stopped to get a late dinner at Jax, a famous restaurant in Truckee. Supposedly they've been on the Food Network and other shows because of how good they are, and I would have to agree. I got a falafel on flatbread and it was excellent. We enjoyed dinner and conversation before headed back to our campsite. By the time we got back it was 10:30 and we were ready for bed, so we didn't even have a campfire, which is rare.
Here are some photos from my recent adventures:
On the place ride back from Wisconsin, about mid-flight I noticed this outside my window. They fields were circles and stripes. Pretty neat if you ask me.
