so my mom, sister, and i went to Sacramento to visit our other family there. it was our first time to visit them during the winter season. here are the few pics that i took...

we left our house on New Year Eve at around 4:30am.


during the Grapevine (about 20miles north of Six Flags Magic Mountain), we encountered massive fog. it was foggy from there all the way to Sacramento...



on January 1st through the 2nd, i forgot to take out my camera out of the car. dont worry, there isnt much to do anyways. LOL!

on January 3rd, we were getting ready to go to bowling. when i was getting camera out of my dad's Avalon, i can see, not water, but ice all over the car! i heard it was about 28°F during the night.


at around 9am, we got to Strike's. its fairly new bowling alley in Elk Grove. there were a lot of people lining up to pay for bowling. there were people lining up because from 9am till 11am, it cost $1.50 per game. good thing that my cousin got up early and wait in line for us. bad thing is that they limit the games per person to 3 now...



i did pretty good. i beat my old score and got 176 points...

after bowl, we had lunch at Squeeze Inn.


btw...that waitress that was staring at me on this picture, i think shes hot!


oh, this place is famous because it was on "Diners, Drive-ins and Dives" on Food Network. more info: http://thesqueezeinn.com/


the menu.



the place is so small. no wonder its called Squeeze Inn. LOL!


my sister and i waiting for food and to be seated.


my mom, me, and my sister.


after we found our seats, i tried to take a pic of the workers. you can tell that they are busy...


my "Squeeze Burger" with extra cheese and extra bacon. i almost die from that after i ate only half of it. LOL!


my sister's first bite.


after eating and going back to my cousin's house, i finally saw a fairly modded xB in NorCal. LOL!


so today, we decided to go to the bowling alley again. yep, we were one of the first ones there. LOL!!!


people lining up.


after bowling and lunch, its time to say goodbye to my favorite dogs.



we left Sacramento at around 1:45pm. my mom wanted to drive back so i fell asleep. when i woke up, we were in Bakersfield. last shot of the sun...


getting ready to head up the Grapevine...


it was foggy up the mountain.


we came back home at around 7:15pm. not a bad 5 1/2 hours drive.

enjoy!

 

^ i left on the night of the 30th to san fran and that fog is nothing compared to what i drove in. you couldnt even see the cars 2 ft. ahead of you, it was pretty scary! got back around 6 this morning and it was clear the whole way home.
