Ahhhhh... who knew that spending 4 out of 7 days of your vacation with your partner, Mother, Father, and sister would actually be fun. I certainly didn't. And it was quite the pleasant surprise. Some highlights included dinner in Santa Monica for my Mom's 69th Birthday, a picnic at a park in Santa Barbara (put together by me), and a visit to San Diego's oh-so-fabulous Zoo. The zoo was more for my father since it was exactly 30 years ago when we last visited. I recommend it to all. We sure spent some time driving around Southern California.
As much as I love being on vacation, I still love the feeling of being home and sleeping in my own bed. Ahhhhhhhhhhh... Later.
