Lake Tahoe

As we were looking at the maps on our phones, we saw quite directly east of us was Lake Tahoe. I have heard of it before but knew absolutely nothing about it or even how I heard of it. I just knew it was a thing and just thought, screw it, let’s go check out a lake. Lakes are cool, and this one definitely was. We drove along the south edge of it through Camp Richardson and eventually into Lake Valley which was a gorgeous little town. The lake is huge and there was plenty to do on the lake. Unfortunately, we didn’t have much time for lake activities. We walked the beach a bit and felt the water, which was cold, no surprise.

After that we went to this second story restaurant and got some food that had a great view of the lake, and you could see a bunch of boats roped together having some type of party. At the restaurant I had some fried cod which is unusual for me because I don’t often order fish while out to eat. But I was in a new place and figured I’d try the local catch and it was worth it. I am not a big cod fan, but I have never had it as fresh as this. It was fried with some type of multi seasoning and it was a delight.

After eating, we walked the beach one more time as the sun set and decided to drive through the night into Nevada.
