Long days
This picture was taken at 1:30 AM. The days here have gotten very long with it staying light out very late and getting light again very early. The official time the sun sets right now is at 10:50 pm, but it will continue to get later slowly until the longest day which is June 21. The sunset time will be 11:16 pm and then will rise again at 3:30 am.

Denmark or California?
The other day we took Rachel over to Solvang. It was founded by Danes in 1911 and now has a population of approximately 5,283. It’s this cute little town with lots of Danish influence. Lots of cute shops, restaurants, bakeries and other cute places. I just thought it was cute!

We also headed over to the Santa Ines Mission. There are 21 missions total in California. If you haven’t heard of the missions in California, Wikipedia explains what they are really well. Check it out here. They are really old and interesting buildings. Usually you can take a tour of the grounds, but this one was closing, so we took some outside pictures.
Happy girl in the car
Since it was jut about sunset and we weren’t too far from the beach, we thought we might be able to get some good pictures at the closest beach we could find.
