Yosemite for Spring Break

Last week was Mark's "Spring Break" from school. On Wednesday the three of us went camping for 3 nights in Yosemite National Park. It was good fun... even if our camping stove didn't work!

Bella shows off her balancing skills upon arrival at our campsite.


Bella and Icha prepare for dinner.


No stove? No problem! We cooked over the open fire for three days.


Cereal and milk: the breakfast of champions.


Bella did her yoga each morning after breakfast.


To get around we took the 'Yosemite Hybrid Shuttle.'

A Sunday Outing

On Sunday the three of us went over to Stanford University to watch the Stanford vs. Boston University women's lacrosse match. The real reason we went though was so Bella could say hi to Julie (who was at the game) and get a chance to ride on her horse, Figuero. Figgy and Julie came to Bella's birthday party back in November.... and Bella was ready to go for another ride!

Icha took this photo while experimenting with our camera. Came out great!


Bella hams it up for the camera.
