The Newport Beach Ride

The last thing to mention about our California trip in July, aside from the fun we had just hanging out with everybody, is that we took a ride with the girls. The plan was to have Lizzie and Rachel in the trailer and Addie on the Tag-A-Long. We had some issues with getting Addie to want to ride the Tag-a-Long which resulted in the following about halfway through the ride...

Notice that her little feet don't touch the pedals so she rested them on the down tube and balanced. Addie got into the trailer with Rachel. In her defense we were missing a part that made the Tag-A-Long more stable and kept it from rocking from side to side.



Addie finally found her bravery mostly due to "The Magic Flower of Courage." Yes, we did pick a flower for her and call it "The Magic Flower of Courage." Yes, it did work.

In the end we made it to the beach to meet everyone else and we all had a great time.
