California part 4

Wednesday: Spent the day in Hemet.  Visited with Ryan's grandparents and their candy closet :) and Ryan's parents who arrived in California the night before and stayed in Hemet.  We went swimming at the Jergensen's pool and then stopped at In-N-Out on the way back for dinner. (Unfortunately I have no pictures to document this day).

Thursday: We went down to San Diego for a Padres game.  On our way home we swung by Portillo's for dinner and chocolate cake shakes.

Friday: Went to Downtown Disney, ate dinner at Earl of Sandwich, and then went back to Rach and Jon's for a bunch of ice cream treats and playing balderdash.

Saturday: Another beach day, ate at Fiesta Tacos again, visited the Donut place again, and hung out in Loma Linda while packing up and getting ready to leave the next morning.

California part 3

Tuesday: We just our family met up with Craig in Newport Beach that morning at his apartment and then went for a hike up in some mountains right by the beach.  There were beautiful views of the coastline and all of the cities along the way.  Following the hike, we went back to Craig's apartment and ate lunch and took naps.  We ended the day by meeting Jon, Rach, and kids at Huntington Beach for a bonfire.

Monday: Went to Newport Beach area and took the ferry over to Balboa Island.  Ate lunch by the docked boats, rode the ferris wheel, and rented the coolest 8-person bike ever that made us laugh the entire time.  Then, we drove to "the wedge" to check out the gorgeous area and big waves, followed by dinner at Cafe Rio, driving by the Newport Beach temple, and hanging out in the hot tub at Craig's apartment complex.  This was a day packed to the brim with fun things.
