Our Mini Vacation

My family and I just got back late last night from our mini vacation. We were in beautiful San Diego for 2 1/2 days. We loved being there because it reminds us so much of another place that we enjoy visiting- Hawaii. SD however is much cooler. We were very happy to get away from the summer heat for a few days. :) On Saturday we enjoyed some shopping, sitting on coin some coin operated rides,and enjoyed a delicious Japanease meal for dinner.



On Sunday we spent the day at Legoland. My son liked the Knights Jousting ride and looking the the new Star Wars area in Mini Land.



My daughter's favorite ride there is the Fairytale Book ride and taking pictures with the princesses.

After spending majority of the day at Legoland we went back to the hotel for a little swim. Then we went to our favorite restaurants in SD for dinner- Anthony's By the Bay. As we were waiting to be seated we walk around the pier. The pieces of art along the pier were lots of fun to see

and we loved the beautiful scenery.

Here are some of the declicous food that we ordered.



On Monday we were planning to go to Legoland for a second day, but decided to save our second visit for a later date. Instead we went to Seaport Village after having brunch. (We slept in so did not make it for breakfast at the hotel.) We had lots of fun looking at the shops there

and taking a stroll along the pier.


It was the perfect afternoon for a stroll. On the way home we stopped by Disneyland for dinner and to ride on some rides. What a fantastic few days it was spending time together and having lots of fun.
