Yuma Prison and San Diego (Drake's b-day)

November 20, 2010

We awoke at a retirement RV park in the morning.  The kids were super excited to swim and celebrate Drake's 10th birthday.  It was Saturday morning and the retirement community was hosting a large breakfast, of which we joined and all sang Happy Birthday to Drake with another gentleman who was turning 82.  It was great fun.  After swimming and playing shuffleboard, we visited the Yuma Prison.  This prison housed 3,069 prisoners while it served as the Arizona Territorial Prison from 1876-1909.  The original cells, main gate, and guard tower still remain. 

After Yuma, we headed to San Diego, CA!  The drive there was super tough.  It was really windy and we drove over some small mountains and got blown all over.  We arrived in San Diego to an RV park hosting a bingo game night.  We played bingo and celebrated Drake's birthday.  All 5 of us won at bingo and Mark even won for best dance after winning a round.  He did the sprinkler and it was great!
