San Diego recap + Friday Faves
San Diego was the BEST. We loved 4 days in certainly one of our very favourite locations and likewise loved some new adventures. We skilled LEGOLAND for the primary time, took the ladies paddle boarding and kayaking (twice as a result of they cherished it a lot!) and we discovered P will not be a fan of Melting Pot lol.
We obtained in on Friday afternoon and determined to spend the afternoon purchasing at UTC, after which loved dinner at Seasons 52. We haven’t been to 1 in years – I preserve wishing Tucson will get one! – and it lived as much as the fond recollections. In fact, the ladies cherished the mini desserts.
We known as it an earlier evening, and the subsequent day, we awakened and it was raining. It not often rains in San Diego, regardless of June Gloom and Could Gray, and after being within the scorching Tucson warmth, it was fairly beautiful.
I caught a Lagree class
whereas the crew grabbed Higher Buzz for all of us,
after which we headed out to paddleboard and kayak because the solar was popping out. P sat on the entrance of my board, and Liv used her personal kayak! We have been out on the ocean for an hour, and noticed jellyfish, leaping fish, and two sting rays. It was wild!
(Swimsuit top and bottoms are here)
After paddleboarding, we went to Pacific Seashore for the remainder of the afternoon to swim and play within the waves. It’s humorous as a result of whereas we lived in San Diego, we averted the seashores throughout vacation weekends as a result of they have been so busy. Now, we don’t care in any respect. We’re simply completely satisfied to be there. 😉
Lunch was acai bowls in watermelons, salads, and occasional,
and dinner was at Melting Pot. We wandered round Gaslamp and since we didn’t have dinner reservations, Melting Pot appeared like it could be a enjoyable novelty choice. Liv ended up loving it, and P was NOT into it. She was like, “Why on earth do I’ve to cook dinner my very own meals… it is a restaurant?”
This explicit meal wasn’t my fave, both. The entire expertise lasted method too lengthy (and the youngsters have been drained on the finish of the day) and the meals wasn’t pretty much as good because it has been prior to now. We used to adore it again within the day, however now, we’re not into poaching meat in a lukewarm pot lol. I might return only for the dessert course, however all the pieces else was meh.
Sunday, we grabbed breakfast on the highway:
(the chocolate acai bowl from Nekter is LIFE)
after which spent the day at LEGOLAND.
P loves all issues legos, so we wished to take her earlier than she was too outdated, as a result of it’s undoubtedly geared in the direction of youthful youngsters. All of us ended up having a blast. The rides have been tremendous cute and enjoyable, the meals was surprisingly superior, and we have been all blown away by the unimaginable Lego sculptures and mini cities.
We did the entire main rides, loved lunch, and walked round exploring. Dinner was Pizza Port within the resort room, which was 10/10 as at all times.
Monday morning, we have been out on the water once more.
(Shorts, sports bra, and tank are right here. Livi’s jumpsuit is here. Additionally, I get a kick out of the truth that P can put on lululemon now)
This time, P and the Pilot did a tandem kayak, Liv had her personal, and I used to be on the SUP. It was the proper technique to cap off our journey earlier than grabbing Nice Maple to-go and hitting the highway. We noticed SO many canines out on paddle boards whereas we have been there, too. I have to take Maisey subsequent time!!
It was undoubtedly a visit for the books, regardless that it was a brief one, we made probably the most of it. I hope you loved your Labor Day weekend, too!
