Trip with Mom



I took my Mom on a road trip to Solvang. We had a great time. On the first day we looked around the main street, found a cute restaurant for lunch and took a horse drawn trolly ride. Then we drove to our hotel. It was beautiful. The rooms are all different, they even have some rooms that walk right out on to the garden.

We had a private garden behind our room.

For breakfast the next morning we had the towns famous Aebleskivers, plus some ham and eggs.
After breakfast we headed out of town to Mission Santa Inez. We got in just in time to see the sanctuary. They closed it for a private function after we walked through. We finished our self guided tour in the back garden.



After Mom and I rested on a bench for a it we headed back to town and took in the town museum. For lunch we decided on American and had sandwiches and potato salad. The rest of the afternoon was spent shopping and people watching.

In the evening Mom and I went to The 39 Steps at the Solvang Festival Theater. It's an open air theater and we saw people walking in with heavy coats and blankets, none of which we had, we thought we were dooooomed!!!! LOL They had blanket rentals. Awesome ;) So we rented a blanket. Neither Mom or I had seen the original play, this one was a comedy, so we are going to try and rent it before she leaves.
