Solvang, CA

After our fun filled day of playing we walked around Solvang in the evening. Our first stop was one of the bakeries to get next mornings breakfast. We each picked out a danish and Ava picked out a meringue cookie because it was pink with sprinkles. The lady at the counter was really nice and gave Ava a giant bucket of cookies for free since it was her first trip to Disneyland. We were all surprised and grateful for the kindness of the lady at the bakery.

After the bakery we walked around the shops. We went into a cool cuckoo clock shop with dozens of clocks on the wall. Ava loved the clocks and I was tempted to buy one, but the cheapest was around $200. The one thing we did buy was a cute Scandinavian dress for Ava.

After looking around we decided it was time to eat. We found the main restaurant that served ebelskivers and ate there. Ava was excited about her ebelskivers and carried around of picture of them to show the waiter. After we finished dinner we order the ebelskivers. This was my first time trying them and they were okay. I was expecting something a little different and more exciting. It basically was a pancake shaped like a ball with raspberry jam and powdered sugar. Ava was not disappointed and especially liked the raspberry jam.

Once we finished dinner we only had one place to go, the chocolate store. I love trying different chocolates, so we couldn't miss this place. We got some chocolates to go and then headed back to the hotel to try and sleep.

We didn't buy any shoes. I just thought this was a cute picture.
