I didn't want to come home!!

We just got back from Lake Tahoe, that's why ;) It was absolutely beautiful. We went up for three days this week to just get away one last time before the baby comes, and maybe for awhile after that too! It was uncrowded, beautifully clear 70 degrees during the height of the day. Our hotel was right on the water on the North shore.

This was the view from our room, looking out to the little private beach that our hotel had. There wasn't a cloud in the sky :)
The first night we went to a mexican restaurant called Blue Agave in Tahoe City and then we hit the sack early. The next day we ate breakfast at this cute little breakfast house in King's Beach, we did a little tourist shopping in Tahoe City and then we drove all the way down to the south shore. We probably wasted about $10 on slot machines all day because I found on little machine that liked to pay me about $1.50 every few tries. We then spent the afternoon on the beach.

I looked at some real estate magazines just to torture my self while Thomas read a book. It was soooooooo relaxing! We went to dinner at Jason's that night in King's Beach.

On the way home today we drove by Emerald Bay and came home by way of highway 50.




The best part was the time of year that we were there. Not only was it not crowded, but the everygreens were interspersed with other trees that were turning yellow, orange and red for the fall and it was absoluetly just gorgeous up there. Thomas and I couldn't stop marvelling at it.
Anyway, now it's back to reality :( Well at least reality consists of some new exciting events coming up, but I'd still like to stay in Tahoe forever ;)

So glad you had a fun time. Tahoe is such a great place to get away to for just a couple of days. And you exercised great self-control to only gamble away $10 !!!

King's Beach is a beautiful place, especially in September when it's not overcrowded. So glad you were able to get away for a little treat time before Caelen arrives.
