Summer Vacation


Can we go back soon, please?

SeaWorld San Diego
(Hey, we got in for free, so why not?) I had to check out their dolphin show and get some new ideas for our show. (But frankly, I like ours better.)


They have a wall made entirely of ice in their Arctic exhibit. We need one of those in SA, although I'm not sure it'd last at all.



A must-see at least once in your life. I've seen it--this time was for Adam. I'm not sure he was prepared for just how big the zoo is! We did a lot of walking, and I got to try out my new zoom lens.





San Diego Temple





Todd and Heather's wedding
Los Angeles Temple







Monterey Bay Aquarium
Of course we went here. I'm a nerd!


Fisherman's Wharf, Monterey
The best part was how close to the beach our hotel was. I woke up and went running on the boardwalk each morning we were there!



Lover's Point, Pacific Grove
(This is where Adam says we're going to retire, by the way. Time to start saving $2 million for a tiny house!)





17 Mile Drive, Carmel



Point Lobos

When we left CA it was 61 degrees. We stepped off the plane to 100 degrees and high humidity, and has remained so since. Ah well. It was a nice break in July!

You look completely gorgeous, my darling. I wish I were still in Oakland so I could have driven over to play with you in SF! It looks like a lot of fun and definitely a nice break from the hideous heat of Texas.

Our favorite places in CA! So glad you guys took this trip, and you are gorgeous. I too don't think the arctic wall would last long here in TX, I'd be standing next to it all day if we had one.

I'm glad you got to get away.

PS I think your photography skills are growing and growing! I love the pictures you're taking!
