California Dreamin'

After dealing with a month of rain in NY, we decided to take a vacation to sunny San Diego. Our friends Amber and Logan were getting married out there and we thought it was the perfect excuse for a vacation. Plus, it was Jay's birthday and what better way to celebrate than in California.

For Jay's birthday I surprised him with a half day bike and kayak tour of the entire city. Our starting point was Mt. Soledad in La Jolla which gave us a 360 degree view of San Diego and the Pacific Ocean.

PB (aka Pacific Beach) is a favorite for college students and young adults living the California dream. We biked along the 3-mile boardwalk and took in the sun and scenery.

La Jolla Cove is known for its sea caves. We kayaked to the sea caves and even paddled into a few of them - very cool!

Children's Pool - No harbor seals this time of year!

Coronado Beach - Rated one of the top ten beaches in the United States.

Mission Bay

Amber and Logan - July 18, 2009

One of the highlights of our trip was the BBQ the day after the wedding. It was held in an amazing villa on the side of a cliff in La Jolla that the bride's parents rented out for the week. Hands down it was the best BBQ we've ever been to in our lives.
