Last Saturday night, we started packing up the car, strapping some luggage to the roof, and throwing in a potted plant and dog. The Yip Family Road Trip was about to begin!

After driving almost 12 hours straight, we finally reached our first destination: Patrick’s Point State Park in the Redwood National Forest.

We quickly set up camp and explored the area before coming back to eat ramen by the campfire.


Since we had.. maybe 3 hours of interrupted sleep the night before on the road, we immediately knocked out before the sun set and stayed asleep for almost 12 hours.
