New Year's Eve

We took a beautiful drive through the mountains to visit the Santa Ynez Mission and then walked through the streets of Solvang which was walking distance from the Mission.



Josie kept asking who died on all the little crosses and why was the ground so bumpy? Were we walking on top of people? Why are people buried under there?


 

Danish town of Solvang.

 Picnic in the park: Cardamon bread with cheese & salami; apple & cheese; taffy apple; Danish split pea and ham soup. I bought the soup at the bakery and only Josie and Katie tried it and we all loved it. Some got Subway sandwiches.

We got back to Grams for a little rest and then to Karen & Luke's for dinner and our friends Pablo and Linda joined us. First course artichokes dipped in butter and then tamales for the main course. Yummy. We toasted the new year at 9pm. Gram & Papa dancing in the new year.
