I finally got to see what everyone's been talking about...Tahoe Lake! Matt found a great camp site right between Tahoe and another smaller lake, Fallen Leaf Lake, where we spent last weekend. Here's some pictures...
Our morning visitor helping to clean the pan that didn't work too well for bacon...but GREAT for popcorn over the fire saturday night! A good S'Mores replacement since I can't have sugar!
There were random thunder clouds and storms coming through on Saturday, so instead of resting by the lake we decided to explore. Our favorite part of the trip was discovering this AWESOME place! Pictures don't do it justice. We could have spent all day here.
The sun came out now and then and everything lit up! We climbed all over the rocks and played in the water!
The colors don't show well in the pictures...bright oranges and reds.
We want to go back on a hot day and just hang out and sit in the pools of water!
Matt stuck his head in!
Next, we drove around Lake Tahoe. Here's Emerald Bay. Again, pictures can't capture the lake's size or beauty.
There's a little island you can see behind us. On the top of it stands a little "Tea House" that someone built years ago. There's also a castle down by the water that we weren't able to go see since it's only accesable by boat or climbing down. Flip-flops weren't good enough. :)
Even tho it was overcast, the lake was beautiful. We found a place to stop and enjoy what little sun was out...and matt was the first to brave the COLD water. I finally gave in as well! BRRRrrrr....but fun! We were both a bit freaked out by being able to see so deep in the water since it's so clear! It's a wierd feeling!
My first time in Nevada!! Welcome to Casinos!
The map!
We loved our campsite! Really nice...but next time we need company to join us!
The "Bear Box" was new to me...we had to put all of our food in it at night to keep bears away. I was tempted to leave it open...cuz I've never SEEN a bear before!
Sunday was a bit warmer so we walked over to Fallen Leaf Lake to relax! It was also totally clear...but since it wasn't so HUGE it didn't have the "freaky" feeling while swimming...I think all the sea monsters are in Tahoe!
Our beautiful, fun day ended in a sad way...matt's ring fell off and sunk to the bottom. We looked for it for a long time since the water was so clear, but finally had to give up. So if you're ever there, just let us know if you find a ring! :)
The drive home was beautiful...again, pictures can't adequately show it...you'll have to come!
Now we're addicted and ready to go explore the next lake! There are tons...so let us know if you wanna join sometime!
