I'm back from San Diego I had an awesome time. It was great to have a vacation and get away from finals and computer screens. It was so strange to see Palm trees all around instead of evergreen trees, the beaches were amazing (I put my feet in the Pacific Ocean) . The hotel was great top class!

On Saturday we spent some time with my friends brothers and their wives. Sunday we went to San Diego Zoo, we had free tickets from the hotel after doing a survey for them. The zoo is huge and is mostly uphill but nevertheless we had a great time seeing all the animals.

On Monday we traveled to Los Angeles to go to Disneyland we had an amazing time. We got there at like 8am, when the park opened and it was super busy. The first ride we went on we won free "fast passes" to get on rides without waiting in line. Score!! We got on a bunch of rides without waiting more then 10 minutes. We got to see 2 parades which were spectacular Disneyland really goes all out for their parades. Towards the evening the lines were dying down so we went on this one ride that was a water ride (which we should have gone on during the day as it was super warm) We got soaked from head to toe and I ended up buying a Disneyland jacket to keep me warm a souvenir none the less. We then went on this massive roller coaster which went upside down, that was awesome so funny afterwards when we both saw our picture. Towards 9pm we saw the electrical parade which was followed with some fireworks. After 14hrs of being a at Disneyland we decided to leave. Being hyper at 10pm we thought we'd go looking for the Hollywood sign with no prevail we thought we'd head back to the hotel.

On Tuesday we spent most of the day at the Beach relaxing (got a great tan) then headed to this place called Old Town where we got to see this old house called The Whaley House, which is apparently haunted.

Wednesday we headed home once we got back into Washington I met Clayton half way and we both went away for a few days together. Clayton really missed me while I was away and even though I had an amazing time I really missed him also. Our Wedding anniversary is July 6th can't believe we've been married 3 years now.

Here are some of my favourite photos of the trip you can see all of them here.

Finals are over!!! I've done great in my exams and I'm thinking I have 2As and 2Bs fingers crossed. I'm mentally exhausted and can't wait for tomorrow. Tomorrow I'm heading to California with a girlfriend which was totally unplanned. I had a phone call this morning asking if I'd like to go, all expenses paid (except for plane fare). I jumped at the chance, I've never been to another State in the US and can't wait. I leave tomorrow for a week, I'm going to Hollywood!! aaahh!! I'll take loads of pictures I'll blog when I get back. See you all.
