Along 17 Mile Drive in Pebble Beach there are these cute little squirrel type animals that are so curious. I have a feeling they’re not afraid of humans due to all the tourists who feed them.

My girls were still getting over their jet lag on our trip to Europe when we took a walk around Traben-Trarbach. They saw a swan in the river eating a headContinue reading “She fully trusts her sister”
