East Coast Extravaganza !!

At the end of October we took a family vacation to the east coast. We travelled by plane, train, and automobile to see family and friends. This is us with Lynn (by now she qualifies as both family and friend).








First stop......Virginia. There we saw Scott, Ping, and Suresh's new cousin, Lydia. As a bonus, Suresh picked his first apple at an apple orchard.






No apple orchard is complete without pumpkins and apple doughnuts!





I would say Lydia has the advantage here !!!





We even took a train to New York City. Suresh is definitely a city boy at heart. He has a special affinity for the Empire State Building.
















Last but not least, we visited Suresh's cousin Kayla and her family. Kayla and Suresh are DEFINITELY related !!






Driving the Denali Road

At the end of September we won the "road lottery" for Denali National Park. That means you can load up the car and drive all the way down the Denali road to the end....a rare treat. Suresh liked the sights but I think he mostly dug the camping in between!

Denali is never complete without a good bear sighting!


Thanks Mom and Dad Navitsly for coming along !!! It was a great way to say goodbye to the summer.
