Unfortunately, I realized today that neither my phone nor my iPad have the ability to update my blog. I don't plan on taking my laptop with me, so any pics or vids I send you guys will be on Facebook, Twitter, and/or YouTube only. This means that for the next four-five days there will NOT be any new posts here. But I promise to have several with all the details of my trip posted in the days that follow my return home.
So, before I leave, let's talk about my plans for this trip! Our flight leaves at 11am tomorrow. If we get there in time, and drop all our stuff at the hotel, we're going to try to catch a boat that goes out on the ocean for three hours - to go whale watching! I hope we get to go; I think that would be SO cool! If not, there is a smaller ferry that takes you around the harbor to see the sites (sights? Maybe both...) there.
On Sunday, we are going to the zoo. The San Diego zoo is kind of a big deal, and I love animals so that's probably going to be my favorite part of this trip! I just need to remember to charge my camera, phone, and iPad before we go so I can get as many pics and vids as possible. I also need comfy shoes. This zoo is big, and we'll be doing a lot of walking. I also think there's a Sea World in San Diego, so on one of my free days, I may go see Shamu.
I get to go to a reception with Mom and her co-workers as a guest. I need to dress nicely, but I get to have free wine and desserts. When I'm not with them, I plan on combing the streets for Cesar Chavez stuff. I heard there's a memorial and some roads named for him (he is 'un heroe' in California).
Aside from all that, I'll probably spend a lot of time on the beach or just the hotel pool. I love to swim, and I know the weather is going to be fantastic! I can't wait!
Here's my job for you guys while I'm gone: if you've been on a great trip lately, tell me about it so I can share it here. Or, if you know of any cool places I should go see in San Diego, let me know - if I get to them, I'll share photos etc. Just a reminder, comments can be posted below and there is a link to my email in the top, right corner. I'll see you all when I get home!
