Summer, to me, is a chance for me to settle in. It gives me time to reflect the school year and prepare or the next one. Its very rare that I take a extended days off from work to go on a posh vacation, but I do like to take a day or three, here an there throughout my three months of school-less freedom, and do something fun!
This summer started off with a visit from one of my dearest friends from Minnesota. During her visit, we spent our afternoons lounging on the beach and going wine tastings. Of course we took a Disneyland day, and a speed adventure through Hollywood.
Mickey's Soundsational Parade
Deliciousness from Pinnacle Restaurant at the Faulkner Winery
Breakfast at my favorite restaurant in California, Olive's Cafe, in Mission Beach. There's nothing better than breakfast on the beach surrounded by beautiful, kind people.
The original "Irises", by Van Gogh at the Getty Museum in Los Angeles
"Tender Greens" in Santa Monica. Tuna sandwich with grilled veg. Mmmhhmm
