Our California Vacation Day 2, La Jolla and the Beach

Day two of our California Adventure was awesome. We actually got a good nights sleep and felt rested. It was a warm night to begin with but after a little bit our tent cooled down with the cool ocean breezes and we had a very relaxing night falling asleep listening to the waves. We woke up got breakfast and got ready to head to La Jolla. Zack and I had gone to La Jolla about seven years ago when we came to California for Zack's birthday. The last time we were there it was so choppy and we were there at high  tide. But we got there and the water was awesome. The tide was no where near as high as it was last time and the water was clear, cool, and so refreshing. I loved being at La Jolla Cove again. It is one of my favorite beaches. We got a great parking spot and were able to set up camp down on the beach. Warren enjoyed playing in the sand and we eventually got him to try snorkeling and he LOVED it! He did not want to stop. I was to nervous to go out beyond where the waves were breaking even though it was calmer beyond that point. While we were swimming a sea lion swam up just behind us and I jumped then went to get Jessica and Warren so they could see it but the sea lion went back out into the ocean. It was cool and a bit scary all at the same time. So unexpected. We saw lots of cool fish and had a great few hours enjoying each others company and the ocean.

Yay! He overcame another fear  and accomplished another first!

Look at the rock behind us and you can see sea lions.

Love my little family


Seven years ago Jessica and I had a picture at this same spot, now Jessica, Me and Ashley got one



This boy had so much fun in the sand and water. He loves playing in warm sand as much as I love the water. With so many of us he got to play while mommy swam, then we all played together, and swam together.


After we got back from La Jolla we hung around camp, made hobo dinners, and enjoyed playing in the sand and hanging out with family.
