What a wonderful time I have been having. I am going to go out and enjoy my last day of vacation but thought I would do a re-cap before I force myself out of bed.
On Friday a little after noon I met up with Erin and Amanda and we departed for Palm Springs. It had been raining all week and it wasn't looking promising for our trip. On the way there we were treated to a beautiful view of snowy mountains but my favorite thing along the way was this big pumpkin patch field with cows in it. Pumpkins and cows were adorable. We got to the house and met up with the others, I think there were 21 of us in total. The house was beautiful with a pool and hot tub and big patio. It was still raining on Friday night but I still wanted to hot tub. The tub wasn't all that hot and I didn't last long. There was much drinking and merriment. The next morning I woke up and got directly i the pool first thing. It was so beautiful and peaceful out. Amanda was awesome and prepared and cooked all our meals that weekend with were so tasty. We had French toast that morning and I seriously could have sat around eating it all day long. Then we split into 3 groups. Byron and Alex went to the casino, most of the guys drank insane amounts of beer and hung out by the pool all day (the sun had come out), and I joined the group that went to the second highest peak in SoCal for a airline tram ride to the top. There was a large crowd of people that wanted to get to all the fresh snow. I was terribly under dressed for the trip but luckily I didn't spend too much of my time outside. At the top I had lunch and wonderful alcoholic coffee drink. The whole thing ended up taking all day so by the time we got back it was just about time to eat dinner. After dinner we played trivia which Alex had come up with all the questions and was amazing. Then there was much drinking and cake and pie and a pool that heated up even hotter then the hot tub which was so wonderful underneath the stars. After another wonderful breakfast on Sunday we headed back to LA. I didn't end up doing much with the rest of my day but watch movies and rest. Then the next morning (Monday) I drove down to San Diego. My brother was working during the day so I went to some vintage shops and a cafe to read for a bit and just bummed around. Then in the evening we got some drinks and dinner at a local pub. We stayed up watch movies and playing with his cat who like to run into boxes like Maru. The next morning I went to Balboa Park and got the 5 museum pass and spent the day enjoying that. In the evening we met up with some of my brother's friends and got some Thai food and then headed off to watch Avatar in 3D Imax. I didn't think I would really like the movie but it was totally fun and entertaining though the 3D really makes the movie. Then I packed up and left yesterday morning for LA. Last night I had my birthday party at The Well and was so delighted that people actually came out on a week night. I had a great time and am way surprised I didn't wake up hungover this morning. So now off to enjoy the beautiful day outside. I really needed this time off to remind myself how wonderful and fun life really is and I am so happy to have so many amazing people to share it with.
