International

Throughout my entire life I have wanted to travel to far away places and experience the many different things of this world. While I haven't been a lot of places internationally, I have been fortunate enough to have visited some really great places, including but not limited to San Francisco and New York. Deep in my heart, Italy has been a place I have dreamed of and is at the top of my future travel plans (directly behind London but before Spain). Venice is definitely at the forefront of my Italy interests. I saw this shirt and knew it had to be mine for a number of reasons. Mostly, because it was on clearance, but also because there lies Venice, showing me the potentials of my life.

Return to Sender

Day four. Our trip ame to a close. We're all returning to normal work weeks tomorrow and couldn't be any less excited, to say the least. Four days away from communication, obligations, worries, life in general was so refreshing and rejuvinating. It isn't right that we have to reenter the real world (the hot, 112 degree world) after such a nice trip to some place so nearly perfect. Well, not perfect, but so wonderful in great comparison to the frustrations of daily life. But alas, all things come to an end, and we're back to finding joy in the small things, which is probably better than constant excellence. It keeps us more well rounded. [That last photo is of my fake tattoo I got. Haha :)]

Never Too Much of a Good Thing

Day three. In all honesty, I really wanted to go to San Diego for vacation this year. We went to Rocky Point last year. We had a really great time, but I wanted to mix it up a little bit and do something we hadn't done in a while. I obviously didn't get my way, but it was absolutely worth it. We had such a great time. Even these photos that are so similar to last years make me happy because it was so chill.

Paradise

Day two. I love all of the people that sell things on the beach. Even when you don't buy their stuff they're so nice! We met a guy that sold these wicked cool wooden animals. Last year I got a duck. In keeping with the water theme, I got a turtle. I have yet to name him, but am open to suggestions. Oh, and dice games are all the better when played on the beach.

Get Away

Just in case you weren't aware, Rocky Point is awesome. Enjoy photos from our first day there.
