Weekend outing

Despite dad's jet lag, hang over and the gloomy weather we made an excursion to Roaring Camp in the Santa Cruz mountains over the weekend. We missed the first train departure so we had to wait around for another 2 hours to catch the next one. Dad was not very thrilled.... However, we looked around in the little cowboy town and hiked up a nature path to look at the majestic redwoods.

Maya, waipo, waigong, dajiu (uncle) and mom were very excited to ride the train. Due to the drizzle in the mountains they kept the steam train in the depot and ran a small diesel engine instead.
