I’m actually glad to be back. I’m not a big fan of traveling, it’s too stressful with all the packing, flying and money you have to spend. But it is always nice to get away from Ohio for awhile.
Our plane landed around 8:30 at night on Thursday. One of Chris’ fraternity brothers that now live out there met us at the hotel with his wife. He took us to this nice Mexican restaurant that was a couple of blocks away. The Mexican food in San Diego is the real deal too but also expensive. For two entrees and a pitcher of beer our order was $60. It was $18 for a pitcher of Dos Equis.
The wedding was outside and it was gloomy and cold most of the time. It was beautiful though and a very nice wedding. The water was also too cold to really swim in, I guess the Pacific Ocean is almost always cold, that’s what I hear anyways. I don’t want to sound like I’m complaining. I did have a really great time.
I met Chris’ cousin Jessi who is really cool, she’s my new biff. We’re actually talking about going to Germany in November. Which is something I have ALWAYS wanted to do. We pretty much hung out with Jessi and her friend that came with her, Sven, the whole time we were out there. I definetly was drunk most of the time, but isn’t that what you’re supposed to do on vacation?!
The zoo was also really cool, it was one of the highlights of my trip and what I had been looking forward to the most. It was the perfect day to go to the zoo, especially the weather, because the animals were all out and about and not just sitting there sleeping or in a cave, which usually happens when you go to the zoo.
On the way back we had a layover in Dallas and I actually got to hang out with my dad for about an hour. I havn’t seen him in 3 years. He took us to get some food and have a couple of beers. It was nice seeing him…a little weird too. He always acts like everything is normal when I see him and not like we never talk at all really anymore.
I uploaded a bunch of pics on facebook, I’ll provide a public link to them.
