California Blog #46: Vacation Day 6 - Family Visits

 It is Day 6 of my California vacation, and today was a good one.


First, the three of us went out for a walk here at Monterey Bay. Like last time, we were looking for some butterflies that fly around. But for some reason, it was the wrong season. So it had to wait until winter. Before that, we went to Target to get Theo James a gift for him.

Anyway… after our walk, we went to have lunch at Palomar in downtown Santa Cruz.


I had a carne asada quesadilla which is delicious. I use sour cream to dunk it. It required free chips and salsa with that. Then when we got back, Aunt Leta picked Kieran up from school today and took him to Tae Kwon Do.

If you’ve heard of Tae Bo starring Billy Blanks, you might be familiar with his workout.


Moving on. We took off with Kieran and Theo James as we headed down to Shanann and Miles’s house for a visit. Kieran and Theo James did a tour around the house. His room, the backyard, the study room, everything.




Shanann even made me bean and cheese quesadillas with pear slices. I chose the mango flavored sparkling water, and she got me vanilla yogurt. How nice of her. Before dinner, Theo James got into my lap and we watch Bubble Guppies on YouTube. Shanann and Miles are so happy to see me, and I can’t wait to see them again tomorrow at Leta and Mark’s house for a birthday dinner. It’s gonna be fun, I can feel it now!


Okay. Now that we’re getting somewhere, we’ve got a big day ahead of us.


Cause tomorrow is Friday, and you know that means. It’s almost the weekend.


And right now, I’m working out on the trade I’ll to get more fit.

Location: Scotts Valley, CA, USA

California Blog #22: Welcome to Lake Tahoe

Image
 Living in Northern California in the future can be a bit of a challenge. But when I think of living here once again, I've thought about one thing that my aunt Leta suggested. She and uncle Mark suggested visiting Lake Tahoe for the very first time. If you can look closely, you can see the beautiful lakeside. That's the south shore seen on the west. At Lake Tahoe, you can also see the view of the shore from California from here. If you liked my blog about camping in California, then get this. There's also hiking here in Lake Tahoe! And that part of Lake Tahoe is Fallen Leaf Lake. How's that for another scenery. Now if you look closely at this map, Lake Tahoe is located in both California and Nevada. As you look closely at these pictures taken from space, you can see the clear blue water in this lake. According to Wikipedia,  Lake Tahoe has a dry-summer continental climate, including  warm, dry summers and chilly winters with regular snowfall. It's the  youngest of s...

California Blog #08: A Visit to Axtell Expressions

Image
  Ever since the day I got my first Axtell puppet in Lawrence KS, it has always been my dream to entertain children, and start my puppet's own show on YouTube. So I would like to take my time to talk about Axtell Expressions. It all started in the month of February 2013 when I got my bee puppet delivered to my door. It was a best day of my life. Since I named him Buzzy, I got the chance to show my puppet to everyone in Lawrence. The school that I went to [Free State High School], Cordley Elementary [including Lois Orth-Lopes], and of course all of my friends in this town I lived in. They are so thrilled that they saw it. He was friendly, kind, and more expressive to people. And for example, this is what my puppet and I look like in that picture. Now in the future when I come back to live in California again, I wanna plan a visit to Axtell Expressions in Ventura where it's between Los Angeles and Santa Barbara. I wanna get the chance to meet Steve Axtell and shake hands with him...

California Blog #11: 7-Eleven

Image
  As I'm still working on my next future life in northern California, I'd like to take my time to talk to you about my daily trips to 7-Eleven in my spare free time. Whenever I come in to a 7-Eleven, I get myself a Slurpee of any kind that I like. Whether it's wild cherry, blue raspberry, pina colada, or Coca-Cola flavored, I'm always down with that. One time, my family and I were visiting 7-Eleven to get myself a Slurpee during vacation in California, and I tried a wild cherry Slurpee. And I gotta tell you, I almost got myself a brain freeze when I sipped too fast. We were in the car on the way. Visiting 7-Eleven reminds of the time I was in Kansas City with my dad while we were moving, and it was great. I wanted to pick out something besides a Slurpee, but it was all I can get here for now. I wonder if I could go there more often. It was also that other time I went there with Aunt Leta and Uncle Mark along with my dad, and my cousins Ryan and Shanann. For me, I got my...
