This is Baguette’s first year in school, which means that we just had her first Spring Break. No, we did not take her to Mazatlan or South Padre Island or the Bahamas.
We went to Mammoth with some friends! There, we got to enjoy the cold weather.
And we also got to be cozy.
But why stop there? Why, indeed. Because this is possible in California–and because Mr. Sandwich had signed up for a half-Ironman triathlon–ten or so days later, we also went to Oceanside and Carlsbad.
Mr. Sandwich drove down early for registration, and Baguette and I took the train. She’s enjoying our train trips.
She also enjoyed the beach, as she always does.
And we got to cheer on our racer of choice!

Fun! And now I’m hungry. Inconvenient. But I can’t wait til we explore Mammoth and try out some of your suggestions, we’ve never been!
We’re not skiers, but we do enjoy snowshoeing there. In the summer, it’s more of a mountain biking and fishing place, but it’s still beautiful!
