My little girl is 12 today. Gulp. I can't believe how fast it's gone. I know that's a cliche, but there it is anyways.
We drove into Santa Cruz & I found a parking lot that could hold our beast of an RV very near the wharf. We walked down the pier & Kimi chose a restaurant for lunch. Then we walked back to shore so that we could walk along the boardwalk. Unfortunately, being after Labor Day meant that the amusement park was closed until the weekend, but we were able to walk in it & get the lay of the land to plan our visit on Saturday. We also talked to a security guard, who let me know about RV parking next to the far end of the amusement park, which was a good 15-20 minute walk from the place we parked at today.
However, where we parked today was great for walking into the downtown area. We found a Borders Bookstore where Kimi & Shaun endulged themselves. Then we wandered over to an organic food store & bought some fresh produce, including some amazing apples. Then we drifted over to a Cold Stone Creamery & pigged out on ice cream. We dragged ourselves & our bags back to the RV & headed back to the campground. Kimi finished off her birthday by watching "Much Ado About Nothing" & eating popcorn. Tomorrow - birthday, part 2!
