A Vacation to Imperial Beach

Last year we decided to try and take a " family" vacation with all the kids. Bruce thought Southern California would be the best place.....and I totally agree, now that we have gone.

We flew into San Diego on Saturday, we rented a Condo on the beach....we got there at 4:00 and by 4:15 we had our swimsuits and towel and were headed to the beach.

I took about 300 pictures, but I couldnt post them all....believe me I thought about it!!

Sunday we took a drive over into Coronado...and shopped and had lunch.

Monday...the Kids "Brandon, Mandy, Jason, Nathan, & Emily headed down to Tijuana for the great deals on Jewelery...I think it helped that Jason and Brandon spoke Spanish.

Tuesday we headed to Sea World....I'm Happy to report that Shamu is alive and well....(it is probably Shamu the third or fourth) but it was a great show.

Wednesday we were able to go through and tour the Aircraft carrier Midway...this was so awesome and well worth the money!

Thursday we took a short drive over to Point Loma and toured the Light House and the memorial.

Was soooo much fun to have everyone there. We all had a great time. And cant wait to go again! Well anyway "I CAN"T WAIT" I miss sitting on the patio and watching the ocean. I miss knocking on B and Mandy's door in the morning at 7:00 to see if Mckai was up yet. I miss teasing Jason and Nathan. I miss watching Erin in the ocean. I miss those great sunsets. All I can say is I'm planning my next trip to southern california, so if you want to go let me know!!


All suited up and ready to surf.....
Finally the ocean.....hmmmm seems to be a little cold...Brrrrr!!


Mckai was so excited to get his feet in the sand.....he just loved being on the beach.

The dirtier he got the better...
