Bakersfield Weekend

We went down to Bakersfield this weekend and visited with Grandpa and Grammie Johnson. Saturday was the big day with a trip to CALM (California Living Museum) Zoo. At this zoo they only have plants and animals that have habitat areas within the state. For Micah it was a toss up between the roadrunner bird inside the tortoise exhibit and the goats at the farm animal area. He also really liked the porcupine since it was pretty active in climbing around in its cage. At the zoo we also took a short ride (5 minutes) on a miniature train that sat about twenty people. Lunch was at Luigi's and it was very tasty with lots going on in their busy dining room. The rest of the weekend was spent playing and relaxing around the house. Micah did very good on the car rides considering that we usually drive during nap time or after bedtime. It helped that Micah now likes Elmo and we brought along his DVD that he just loves right now. We also got a free ping-pong table from the neighbors (Monday night) so watch out for some fancy moves from Jill in the future.
