Blogger fail… again. When I went to Austin for a girls’ weekend in February, I forgot to bring my DSLR camera. I didn’t realize it until I was going through security with my luggage and paused to think about why it seemed too easy to load all my stuff onto the conveyor belt. Bulky camera bag missing. That was the reason.
This weekend I went to San Diego… one of the most beautiful places on earth, and a place we frequent often now that we live six hours away by car {see here, here, and here}. This time I remembered my camera, but with all the shuffling around town, going back and forth between the hotel where Micah’s work conference was held and my friend Bekah’s house, I never took it out of the case to snap a single pic.
Oh well. Praise the Lord for iPhones. I’m thankful to have lots of photos of our fun little weekend away, even if they don’t quite compare to what the big camera might have captured.
And the last three paragraphs could really be condensed to this: Went to San Diego this weekend. It was amazing, as always. Love my friend, Bekah. Ate a LOT of good food. Took many pictures with iPhone. The end.
On the first morning there I ran to the ocean and started taking pictures.
Our hotel was across the street from this view!
Finally tried Con Pane. Delish. That’s a homemade butterscotch latte, in case you were wondering.
Lunch and work session at Red’s.
Bekah and I went to her favorite restaurant, Bobeau, for dinner. It was so good.
I ate about a pound of roasted Brussel Sprouts. Not a joke.
First time wearing maternity jeans. Woot!
Brunch at Jimmy’s Famous American Tavern (JFATs) on the harbor in Point Loma.
After our brunch, we had to go home and take a nap.
This is Bekah’s comforter and the tablesccape on her patio table. Isn’t she the cutest person ever?
Don’t worry. We burned off about 1/10th of our brunch by biking from Ocean Beach to Mission Beach and all the way to PB. And then we stopped for YogurtLand… 🙂 Afterward, we went to dinner at Anthony’s Seafood Grotto and had the best fish ever… only because our server took the liberty of changing our orders for us. Also not a joke. We ordered and then he changed each of our entrees. But he chose better than we did.
We took a detour on our way home and went north to Corona to have lunch with my best friend and her husband. Bump kisses DID happen. Then we took the 10 all the way home… with a stop at the outlet mall in Palm Springs. Just FYI, there are WAY too many windmills on this route. I am petrified of windmills, but Micah convinced me to face my fears and take a picture. Eeek! Seriously. They scare me.
Love all the pics! Your bump is too cute! Did you stay at the Hilton on Shelter Island? That's where I got ready for my wedding! You look too darn cute 🙂
you, your writing, and your pics are the best! I am a fan!
Yay for maternity pants!! And friends that are excited your preggo! 🙂 Why of all things, are you afraid of windmills???
