Sunny San Diego! A lot of friends are and should be jealous of the sunny days and cool nights:) There were many mexican restaurant adventures, contemplating a "quick trip" into mexico and lots of spanish learned...ok well maybe I lied on learning spanish. What a lovely couple of days in the sun riding bikes all around the city of San Diego. Dayllen and I were able to catch up with Shanna( an amazing friend from Portland) and have a ton of memories made. For instance...Dayllen and I attended our first kickboxing class at 24 hour fitness...whoa! the coordination needed for that was definitely unexpected! Dayllen was spotted "making it pop" while the rest of us were focused on an upper cut:) Hilarious, yet at the end of the class we were all soaked in sweat and filled with joy! Quickly reversed with a calorie free and sugar free trip to IN N OUT. Shanna decided her and I should attend a body pump class the next day and hot/power yoga that next night...let me just say I know now I am OUT OF SHAPE. I was INSANELY sore the next day and I am still complaining to Dayllen about it!
We left SD on a good note or fun and sun and headed to San Clemente to visit a dear family friend of Dayllen's. The Bussjaeger's were surprised and welcoming to our faces and our van. Mexican was on the menu for dinner along with catching up on life. It was such a great evening with an amazing family. Thanks to them we headed to LA after some good strong coffee! Now...we are in LA waiting to fly out in the AM to KENTUCKY! Becky and Lawson are getting hitched in KY! Exciting and different scenery! We will be shooting guns, roasting pigs and driving tractors! Keep you updated after the fun starts!
Here is the rooftop pool at Hard Rock Hotel in downtown San Diego. As Shanna let us in on the secret that you can sneak in without even being a guest at the hotel:) Just to bother ordering a drink or it will cost you like $14!! It was super hot when we went so we got a little bit of a tan:)

Well, here is our little campsite we had at strand state beach in San Diego. We had a pretty good stay here for 3 days. The beach was pretty much your typical State beach/family beach with everyone running around and riding their beach cruisers. After we left this beach we headed up to San Elijos State Beach up in Encinitas and it was amazing. They don't take reservations on short notice so we just had to drive up last minute and see if they had any spots and sure enough we got the best spot there!! I'm not even joking when I say it was the best spot there. They called it an inland spot even though is was the last spot down on the bluff and there was nobody in front of our view to the Pacific. We had a good night there and ate some super tasty mako shark on the campfire. Lee-Anne snuck a victory at phase 10 out. We are now near downtown San Diego hanging with Shanna at her pad, going to kick-boxing at 24-hour, and riding our bikes from one mexican restaurant to the other. Now I'm just taking a break at the coffee shop while the girls are taking a pump class at 24. It's a little chilly today for San Diego standards so I'm in chill mode:)
