China 2011-2012 Trip Begins
We started our trip with a quick home-stay with my brother in Saratoga CA. Hiking around the Santa Cruz Mountains made California seem like a continuation of our South America trip. Intro to Asia came in the form of delicious Thai restaurants and visiting with my brother and family. The highlights were an ice cream cake creation for niece Nicole's birthday and niece Cameron's school musical.
