California Trip Day 2 - Redwoods: Big Trees=Big Fun

Doing a Junior Ranger walk and learning about habitats.
Tidepools
It was a big tree...
So was this one.
And this one.
Those too.
Gabby loved to catch the millipedes. Sam did not want to hold them.
Bulldozing the beach.

We left Crescent City and went in to Redwoods Parks - there is a chain of state and the national park and you go from one to the other all day and from forests to ocean views. We did a hike and learned about habitats from a California State Park Ranger. The big huge enormous amazing redwoods just went on for miles and eventually you lost a little perspective on them. But those were some big ole trees. We hiked a couple of short hikes enjoyed ocean views when we came around to those, too. We spent our second night at a KOA Kampground in Eureka, California. This was was up on a windy hill so not quite as cozy as the first but we still enjoyed it.
