We ventured into Old Sacramento, which is a National Historic Landmark District and State Historic Park. It dates back to 1848 with the discovery of gold, it was the last stop on the Pony Express route, transcontinental railroad terminal, and housed the original California Supreme Court Chambers.
Hope you enjoy, because we sure did!

After lunch at Annabelle's, we walked through an underground tunnel to take us to Downtown Sacramento, where the Capitol building resides.
Beautiful murals in the tunnel...

Another ice rink! We are 3 for 3 (even though this one was taken down)!
