Hike 17 & 18 Mission Peak second around!! SUPER MOON TIME =D Hike 18- Redwood Regional Park



Hike 17 was the Super Moon Hike =D

So last time I went to Mission Peak, I backed out because of the severe Heat ! But I dont leave anything unfinished, so I went back the second time and this time wisely chose an evening time =D

Started the Hike in the evening around 5.30
Sun set time:)
 
Moon Rise Time-- seems like it got lighter after the sunset



An awesome friend always brings such good food along =D some people are awesome !! Their secret- Strawberries with Hummus ! its yummay !

Yes the iphone takes great pictures sometimes !







That was Very SteeEEp!
See those people? I mean down low? Yes, I was on a much higher hill than that ! =D





Hike - 6.5 Miles ( Felt like 14 because it was so dark on the way down) 
Time- 5 hrs 20 mins
Very Steep- Toes hurt a bit for a week because of the impact on the way down !
Weather- Windy, breeze was much needed in that very hot area. 


Hike 18 =D Redwood Regional Park 
 
Beautiful trail, but getting to the trail from the parking lot the walk on concrete, is 15 minutes long and no fun at all.

This Hike was beautiful ... Early morning hike =D There were many BEAUTIFUL views !! and I soaked it in so good that I even forgot to take pictures of the views. But this is at the end of the hike =D We hiked for about 3 Hours =D Lovely conversations and lovely Hike =D I'm definitely going back here =D
Time - 3 hours
Distance - Maybe 6 Miles
Weather - Pleasant =D





Celebrating Yin this month of April !

This month, since I felt a little bit unwell, I decided to eat a LOT healthier. A Chinese Medicine Healer told me I may have a lot of Yang meaning heat in my body and that I maybe lacking Yin meaning coolness. So this month is to restoring Yin !! Ice cream could do the trick, but i'll add fruits and veggies to be on the safe side.

For the rest of the month, Im having only fruits and vegetabes, except for lunches I get to pig out on fried stuff if I must. For the rest of the meals, here you go :) 

First Step-

Lots of fruits with cool milk and tiny bit of Salted Caramel from Bi Rite

i.e. SMOOTHIES !

If you are a smoothies lover you MUST own a NINJA ! Its a blender thats simply brilliant !


Blend Strawberries, Bananas, Milk, Ice Cream and sugar =D And you are good to go !
