Family Gathering and Big Bear

(more pictures to come)

Friday, June 29, we packed out car, cleaned out the house and left for San Diego to celebrate Ariella's bat mitzvah.
We arrived at  the Holiday Inn where everyone else was staying around 10pm.  We assumed that they were all sleeping (since they had just arrive from the East Coast) so we waited until breakfast to greet relatives we had not seen since the previous summer.

We enjoyed Ariella's bat mitzvah service and all the accompanying festivities.


Sunday we enjoyed a pool party/brunch.



Afterwords, we stopped at Aunt Eileen and Uncle Bruce's house before deriving to LA to spend the evening with friends in spite of the strange sound the car was making.  Unfortunately, our car broke down on the way and we spent the night in Irvine.



The next morning we sold our can to the mechanic at the garage where AAA towed the car and transferred our junk to a much newer rental car.

We visited the Pacific Marine Mammal Cemter before heading off to Big Bear.

At Big Bear. the kids swam in the hot tub, played games and enjoyed various activities on the lake..  On Tuesday we all went on pontoon boats,


 Wednesday was extreme tubing and fireworks in the evening.

 Thursday the kids and brothers went jet skiing before we left for Las Vegas.
