Vacation, Part 2

One of my favorite things to do is watch wild critters. I went on a little boat to see the seals at Catalina Island. There were several "rafts" of them. They tie into kelp beds to sleep and raise their flippers to keep cool. One came to the boat to sight see back at us.

In Ensenada, Mexico...
This is "La Bufadora" which the guide told us means, Buffalo Snort. Cute, huh! Chelley and Lorraine saw it from the top, Bruce and David kayaked to it and enjoyed that very much. It sprayed way high to us at the top so it must have seemed way huge from sea level.

Vacation Part 1

Well, we've been home long enough for me to get my pictures on the computer. Now let's see if I can get them here. We went to California, driving all night so that we got there too early to check into our room so we took a little L.A. tour. Chelley got some good pictures of the studios we passed. They sure looked fun with murals and giant posters of their t.v. shows and movie characters. Our main goal on this sight-seeing expedition was to find the Hollywood sign. Success! This was the closest we could get to it. Went back to the hotel, but on the way we found this...

It's our Tiffy! Missed you Tiff.

Anyhow, our room was great and looked out over "California Adventure" park. We didn't spend a lot of time there, tho. Too much else to see and do. Disney World was great and we had lots of time to see everything we wanted to.

In TomorrowLand, David and I both got to try the Segway.

David also got to play with the electric instruments in the idea house.

Memories

I got this from my cute niece Katy. I love how creative she is and when I grow up I want to be just like her.

1. As a comment on my blog, leave one memory that you and I had together. It doesn't matter if you knew me a little or a lot, anything you remember!

2. Next, re-post these instructions on your blog and see how many people leave a memory about you.It's actually pretty cool (and funny) to see the responses. If you leave a memory about me, I'll assume you're playing the game and I'll come to your blog and leave one about you.

Time

Well, it's finally here! Within moments (okay a couple of hours) we'll be piling into the car, destination Disney. When we get back, I'll have lots of stories and pictures to share. Until then; take care, be good, and remember we love you :-)
