Our last day in California

We woke up and Jennifer and Shawn went to get us coffee and danish at the 7-eleven down the street. We all got ready and packed our suitcases for our checkout of the hotel. We went to get Alfredo and then headed to Pt. Reyes. We drove thur the most beautiful places I've ever seen before we stopped by Omars uncles where he is a ranch hand at a dairy ranch. Then off to the lighthouse. Shawn was driving and at one point the road was up on this mountain and there was clifts and ocean and I was sliding down under the dash board. And then Jennifer yells let me out I can't do this. So Shawn stopped the car and she got out, the wind was blowing and it was very cold, and the cows are not in fences were she was. So Shawn stopped the car and we could see her head coming up over the hill and so we backed up and picked her up. We were laughing so hard. Then we got to the top and we had to walk .4 miles to the lighthouse, Shawn was toooo cold so me and Jennifer walked to the lighthouse and it was down alot of stairs so we didn't go down them we just stayed up on top of the mountain. There was a sign that said walking the steps is like going down 30 flights of stairs. We took lots of pictures and as soon as John gets them on the computer I will post them. We then drove back and stopped at the resturant that Omar works at and had a wonderful lunch. Then we got back to Peteluma and did some shopping. I went into a wonder Yarn shop but didn't buy any. I know I can't believe it either but I have so many projects now I can't buy anymore yarn. Then we went back to Omar's so the family could say good bye to Alfredo. Then off to the airport. I slept on the plane just about the whole time. Now we are getting ready to go to the beach with the family. I can't wait to be there and just relax and have fun. Thanks Amy for the best time of my life.

California trip part II

We drove to Petaluma and crossed the Golden Gate Bridge, it was foggy so we didn't see much that day. We stopped and ate some lunch and then went to Omar's school to see Alfredo and meet Omar's principal and Alfredo's nursery school teachers. Then off to Omar's house and we waited for his parents so we could meet them but we were soooooo tired so we left and went to dinner (Alfredo cried when Amy left him) We checked into the hotel (Bed and Breakfast) and they had miss understood when Amy called for the reservation so we had to wait until our suite was ready. They tried to put us in a room with a queen bed and a double bed but that would have meant that Me, Jennifer and Amy sleep in the same bed. So everything got worked out and we walked to a restaurant (Central Market) if was wonderful. Then Shawn and Jennifer went back to the room to sleep and me and Amy went back to Omar's to meet his parents. They were wonderful. We got back to the room at about midnight east coast time. We slept very well and got up at 5am west coast time so nothing was open. We all got into one bed and watched TV and talked and Shawn walked to 7-eleven and got us coffee. We all got ready and went to get Omar for the game. Omar drove us to the Oakland game and we sat in the 5th row. It was hot and I got sun burn on my face and arms. Omar then took us into Sanfransisco, we shopped and saw the Sea lions and Alcatraz. We got back to Omar's house and his mom made us Anchalatas and they were soo good. It was also Omar's brother Ivin's birthday so we had cake (it was also my birthday) stay tuned for our third day.

California trip

Ok I left work at 2pm on Tuesday and drove to Amy's house and got there about 5pm. I ran into some rain and heavy traffic when I got into Virginia. Me and Amy went to Ulta when I got there to buy some last minute things. When we got back to Amy's Rich was there and Jennifer and Shawn arrived shortly after. We went to a Deli for dinner and it was so good. My sandwich was about 3 inches tall with meat. Then we went to a store, I don't remember the name but it had upscale merchandise for a lower price. I got a pair of my Not Your Daughter jeans for $50 and I usually pay over $100 for them. They are the best, they tuck your tummy and lift your hinney. We then went home and went to bed. I got up at 3:45 am on Wednesday, the alarm was
set for 4:00 so I got up before the alarm. I got into the shower and made room for Jennifer and Shawn to get ready. We had coffee and then off to the airport. Rich dropped us off and we went
in and checked in and went thru security, no problems. We went and got a little breakfast and then we boarded the plane, it was a none stop flight to San Fransisco Jennifer bought us a movie and we saw Mall Cop. It was sooooo funny. We didn't get to sleep we just were so excited. We saw snow on the mountains over Colorado and Utha. Went we got to San Fransisco we got the rental car and off to Petaluma. Petaluma is where American Graffiti was filmed. More to come.
