The Big City

We went into the big city so that Genevieve could take some PT continuing ed.  My favorite thing about her class was the venue's proximity to Golden Donuts.  She might agree.  We had high hopes of visiting friends, but it turns out that being in the big city with three mini-ninjas makes for challenging logistics.  We rested our heads at the Dimond Hotel, and spent most of the daytime up at Team Wilyo's.  The timing was perfect for celebrating Regan and Paxson's birthdays.  And watching a 3D Puss N Boots.  And frolicking in the snow.

 The cool thing about the Dimond Hotel is each room has a HUGE bathtub ("Like Aunt Rani's"), and a portal that opens up so that you can watch TV from the tub.  The kids loved it.  The other cool thing about the Dimond is that it's owned by the Seldovia Native Association, so there's lots of cool Seldovia stuff in the hotel.

Other highlights of our trip: Bouncing bears.
