Will Rogers State Park

In an effort to enjoying the AMAZING weather we are having this January we decided to head out and explore Will Rogers State Park near Santa Monica. Our friends had given us a backpack so we could hike with Nolan and we were excited to try it out! We decided to do a short hike up to Inspiration Point, which would give us views of the ocean and downtown LA. We parked a ways from the entrance because it cost TWELVE dollars to park the car!! I still can't believe it. We did feel a little guilty not paying though, because this is one of the parks the Governator wants to close because the lovely state of California can't handle its finances, but twelve dollars?? Nolan loved being in the backpack and was talking and squealing the whole time. It really was a beautiful day, sometimes I think we are crazy for wanting to leave a place where 76 degrees in January is not abnormal...

Here are a few pictures from the hike:

We were headed the right way!

If you look really closely you can see snow-capped mountains in the background. Also, how happy does Nolan look?
