Tahoe trip - day 2

Nathan was working hard on his daily business. This is his "poo-poo" face




The second day, black Friday, was a raining day, we went to South Tahoe, leaving Rachel home for his project. We went to Ceasars for shopping, but was very disappointed. Totally different from Ceasars in L.V. We met Min and Hsui-Huei's family at a shopping plaza, when the rain turned into snow - the very first snow this year! Nathan was very excited, did not want to leave.
The snow continued and sky was turning dark as we left South Tahoe. It was fun to drive in the snow at first. After a while, we entered into a hill section, the road became covered with thicker snow, and the car in front slowed down a lot, leaving two tracks on the snow.
We started to worry when several cars stoped on the road, flashed their hazard lights. We stopped to ask what's going on, and a man said it's dangerous to continue, we better head back to South Tahoe. We stopped for several minutes, wondering if our Oddyssey could bring us home. At last another minivan passed us, we decided to follow it. The road now became very slippery, we could see ice started to form, like piles of robble on the road. We drove very carfully, stay on the tracks created by the van in front. It didn't take long before we arrived Tahoma, the little town where our temperary home was. But it took several turns before we finally found the correct way home, A Ju get off the car to look for direction several times. Everyone in the car prayed very hard, except Nathan that is. He slept soundly all the way home!
