Fun in the sun

As I'm looking back over the photos to decide what to write about, it appears that all we have done here is eat. That really is not the case, but no one would know it from the documenting we have done. I guess when you're on a trip eating does become one of the central things to do, but really, is that all we do? Anyway...

Friday morning we hit up Lucky Boy for the world's best breakfast burritos before the beach. (Side note -- I've been going there since high school and yet somehow overlooked the fact that you there are more options than just bacon or sausage burrito. You can also choose ham! Good thing I finally read the menu..)

We spent Friday at Manhattan Beach, followed by a brief trip through Old Town. I really wanted to take Courtney to Melting Pot just for the cheese and chocolate but we were still dressed in our beachy-hobo-ish attire. So she popped into H&M then made a quick change on the street, in front of Tiffany's.

Friday night we met up with Kristin and her date at the Dodger vs. Red Sox game.

Saturday was again spent at Manhattan beach. Such a beautiful, warm day. It's much easier to be happy about life's complications when you're sitting in the sun don't you think? After our play time was over, we headed to the infamous Roscoe's Chicken & Waffles (why not right?). It's a strange combination but their waffles are actually very good.

The Wiley's have been so nice to let us stay with them! They have a beautiful home and it's been so fun to be in La Canada. It makes the driving very easy because I know my way around pretty well.

Mmmm...

Day one of trip to CA (henceforth known as Base Tan Weekend):

Today I had frozen yogurt twice.

First at the Salt Lake Airport (as my breakfast, it had fruit in it so that counts right?) then again after dinner at my dearly beloved Penguin's in La Canada.

I love vacation.
