Quick trip to Lake Tahoe

Last month just before Eid, we went to a quick weekend trip to Lake Tahoe to have some breathe out of my busy office works. And know what, we enjoyed the short trip! We stayed in the beautiful David Walley's Resort few miles from South Lake Tahoe. The second day we spent time in South Lake Tahoe, specially on Gondola Ride. Here is a video and some pictures of that beautiful ride which goes more that 9000 feet above sea level. Just after coming back and just before the Eid day, Ahyan started his first day at public school . Saiful visited us from Atlanta in Eid night and spent a few days playing around Ahyan and Suhaila. I took him for a sight seeing to Golden Gate Bridge and San Francisco. He bought an XBox Kinect for Ahyan.

We had to do the hotel booking at that time and buy the tickets of Universal studio and Disneyland. Next morning we left Fremont at around 11 AM and reached Airtel Plaza hotel at Van Nuys (in 5 and half hours of drive), just 15 miles before LA downtown. After taking some rest, we went to Aladin Sweets for dinner. We ordered almost all dishes at once and couldn't finish most of it. The next morning we went to Universal studio around 10 AM. Amin and I enjoyed the rides very much, specially Mymmy ride and Jurasic Park. The studio tour, waterworld and Terminator is always my favorite but I didn't like much Shrek 4D.
