California!!

Dad and I got to go to California during spring break to have a bunionectomy done on my left foot.  We flew there Sunday, 3-13-11, and came home the following Friday, 3-18-11.

Here's some highlights...

Dad checking our luggage at the Greenville-Spartanburg airport

 

I LOVE airports!!! People are funny :)

This is for Steve...inside joke, but the poster was funny

 

I got the window seat three out of four flights

   We love flying!

Dad and I stayed at Laguna Beach Inn 

There were flowers everywhere!! 

Our room looked out over the sundeck

The view. I like the tile roofs in CA.

My own personal store in downtown Laguna Beach :)

Dad and I walked a mile and a half Sunday night to eat supper at a Coca~Cola diner

On Monday we went on a dolphin/whale safari

The Manute'a...there were about 40 people on the tour

We saw pelicans and California sea lions on the way out of the harbor

 

 Dad and I were at the front of the boat for over an hour...It was windy!!!

 

 

A boat trolling for sharks

 We saw three blue whales on migration...here's the tail of one

 The boat was right in the middle of a pod of common dolphins

+500 of them!! 

The dolphin safari was the best part of the trip!!

Our hotel was directly across from the ocean!!  I had fun exploring Monday, and Tuesday before the surgery

The rocks were interesting 

 Monday night we ate supper, then walked on the beach til sunset

 I love you, Steve!!

 Sooooo handsome :) He took really good care of me
