West Coast Escapade

We are back in Reno from a great west coast tour with our families. It was quite the adventure and I enjoyed every bit of it.

May 13, Thurday - Our parents and brother landed in Reno airport about 5pm PST. We picked them from the airport with our rental 2011 Toyota, Sienna.

May 14, Friday - After shopping at Walmart together, we went to Grand Sierra Resort and ate the buffet. Friday evening, Ajo graduated from the MSIS program at UNR. It was blessed ceremony and a really proud moment.

May 15, Saturday - We attended our prayer fellowship and headed to Lake Tahoe and then to Sacramento.

May 16, Sunday - We drove to San Francisco. We stopped at the popular tourist attraction like the Golden Gate Bridge, Lombard Street, and the Painted Ladies.

May 17, Monday - We started our longed drive from Hayward, CA to Los Angeles. We were able to see the Hollywood sign and the city skyline before it got dark.

May 18, Tuesday - We drove to Vegas and spent the afternoon strolling down the Las Vegas Strip and enjoying the so called "Entertainment Capital of the World."

May 19, Wednesday - We drove to the Grand Canyon. On the road we stopped at Hoover Dam on the Nevada- Arizona border. A glimpse of Grand Canyon brings awe and wonder. The grandiosity of God is what Grand Canyon reminded me off.

May 20, Thurday - We spend the morning till late afternoon exploring Vegas. Our families boarded the plane to JFK at 11:00 PM. Ajo & I drove to Stratosphere to experience the night time view of Vegas. It was windy but stunning and worth the long wait.

May 21, Friday - We started our drive back to Reno. We drove to LA and visited Griffith Observatory on Friday evening.

May 22, Saturday - A long drive though 395 -North got us home to Reno about 9:15PM.

Here ends the long escapade of  a great road trip. God's grace empowered us, strengthened us, and protected us till we got home Saturday night.
