Douglas Park This park is so beautiful. It has pond full of ducks and turtles. We even saw ducklings. So cute. Pigeons visits the pond from time to time. Lot of kids chase these around. Watching the ducks swim was calming even for me. The creek flowing by and the park with a lot of…
Socal Beaches
This post contains many of the beaches we visited along the Southern California coastal line. Santa Monica Pier Manhattan Beach – Roundhouse aquarium The Roundhouse aquarium in the pier is free and small. It has very little fishes and sea life. It was still an interesting visit.

La Jolla Cove, San Diego
A short mile long trail along the shore. I thoroughly enjoyed this walk. We started our trail from seal rock. There were a lot of seals resting on rocks and near by was Children’s pool. It was cool place on its own. We walked along the shore past a park and several spots where you…
Sunset Cliffs, San Diego
This is a beautiful spot. Very romantic and scenic. We saw a proposal while we we hiking this trail. We walked along the coast watching the sun go down. The caves and rock formations were unique. Though it is not really stroller friendly we took the stroller. Walked on the bike path at times. This…
Mueller State Park (Second visit)
I am so not sure why we did not explore this park better the first time around. I guess I did not do my research well the first time. This time around with a 1 year old, the way we look at everything has changed. This park is awesome. Really it is. It has small…
Skaguay Reservoir

Blue Grouse Trail
I am happy to post something here after a long gap in between. We went to the Golden gate canyon park catch the changing colors without having to drive anywhere far. Due to my son’s nap schedule we went there in the afternoon. It was crowded even then. We choose the smallest trial on the…
Left Hand Reservoir
This Reservoir is located close to Brainard Lake Recreation Area. So I had actually planned to go to Long lakes located in the Recreation Area. Unware of the new reservation rules. We are required to reserve slots for almost every parking lot inside this Recreation area now. So our choices were to either hike from…
Ketring Park
