A few weeks back we took a adventurous {I stress the word: adventurous} road trip to sunny California. I am just now getting around to writing up a post because we went on another family vacation shortly after.
I know, hate me, I lived the life of leisure for a few weeks. Now reality hits and hubby has put a halt on spending--What? No Anthropologie shopping spree?
Sigh...
{That's ok, I am good at making something from nothing}
Now we are home, getting geared up to go back to school - yikes - only one more week of vacation left!
Time flies when you are having fun, no?
So for your viewing pleasure a few photo highlights from my trip:
Agate Beach...
Me searching for agate.
Tall Redwood trees.
After a night sleeping in the car {first for us} because we I failed to book a hotel in Sonoma, we ended up riding bikes across the Golden Gate Bridge to kill time before we headed to our amazing hotel.
Chinatown, San Francisco
The BEST panini sandwiches...
Driving the car down Lombard Street...
Cable car rides...
The Big Sur, one of the most gorgeous coastlines in the world. My husband stopped the car every 5 minutes to take photos.
Elephant seals at San Simeon.
Beverly Hill, Wiltshire Hotel {where we are pretty sure we saw Paris Hilton in the bathroom!}
The girls and I shopping at Coach, my husband starting snapping photos and that drew several onlookers to see if there was a celebrity in the store - ha, it was only us!
Hollywood at night {interesting place when the sun goes down}
El Capitan, the most exciting part was...
Seeing Lady Gaga perform live at an impromptu concert behind the El Capitan!
She sounds amazing live!
Universal Studios as the sun sets.
Santa Monica Beach.
It was such a fabulous trip, one we won't forget {especially the sleeping in the car part}.
Next week I will show you photos from two fabulous hotels with stayed at.
My husband wondered why there are random photos of lamps, walls and furniture amongst our travel photos - where has he been for the last 18 months, doesn't he know I write a blog?
Silly guy. But I love that silly guy, today is our 20th wedding anniversary!
I got married,
ehem,
a bit young, at 20ish.
Happy Anniversary to my better half!
He puts up with random thrift store finds and spray paint projects in the garage.
My half finished rooms around the house.
Piles of fabric and samples laying around.
Paint samples taped to the wall.
Thanks for
for putting with me for the past 20 years.
Love you.
**edited Aug 25. I should note that is was my guy that took most of the photos - he has a good eye!
