San Diego Day 1!!

Ok...so we are at the WorldMark in San Diego..and when you check into a Worldmark, they give you a brochure with all the local attractions and directions to them from here.  So, this morning, Balboa Park was on our radar.  I am the designated map reader, so i take the brochure and we started out pretty good.  But we got to step 4, and chris was like 'are you sure this is the way?'....turns out i was reading to Mission Valley Park and not Balboa Park....whoops.  But to my defense, Mission valley sounded way more interesting to ME because it is the only coast line amusement park in san diego with a rollercoaster!!  Sadly, after a few laughs at my foul up, we decided to enjoy where the road (or I) took us..but the amusement park was closed.....boo!  So, we went for a small walk on the beach. 

 Dad....it totally reminded me of our Cali trip when carrie and i had those matching red windbreakers, running on the beach together. Only this time, its my turn, and my kids are wearing blue matching jackets....

 This is us....finally arriving at Balboa Park...we decided to picnic before we went in....the sun is amazing!

 This little monkey has been hounding us to let him climb a pal tree since we arrived...so here is the proof that he did it!

 This next segment was just for Elliot....our train lover...we took him to the miniature train museum.

 Can you see their sweet little reflections in the glass?

 I wondered, in my head, if this would be me one day.  She was a sweet, old woman..we chatted a little.

 Levitating boys......

 Chris letting Isaac have a little photo shoot.....i think he snapped like 70 in a 30 second time frame!!

 Now we are back at the resort and this is what i am watching as i work on these blog picture....nice to be so close to the pool and not have to swim!  Chris went to bed, he is still exhausted.....so we will be having a low key night...maybe watch a movie, skype with some favorite people...thats about it.

GOOD NIGHT!!

ps:  oh, and i turned comments back on...chris wants to hear from you...i could care less, since i am feeling a little more private about the blog because its for me and my own memories, but he seems to becoming a little more involved with opinions on how i should be regulating things, so i try to accommodate where i can....
