Old Sacramento, the historic waterfront district and National Historic Landmark, offers up a fun adventure for families and history nerds alike. We learned so much about California history and the trans-continental railroad's impact on the culture and economy of the Golden State at the California State Railroad Museum. All aboard!
We are thankful for our kooky family, including our five bunnies. In this post, we share Oliver, Scout, and Pippa, and their stories of love and resilience. We wish for you hope and light this Thanksgiving, with love from The Cranky Camper family.
In this short post, we visit the municipality of Gouda, famous for being the center for cheese trade during the Middle Ages. Today, visitors can check out the traditional cheese market, as well as sample many cheeses in the various cheese shops around the city square.
