I got home from J-Tree, unpacked, repacked, ran some errands, went to a XC meet, and then headed back to CA. We went as a family to Del Mar on Ryan's recommendation. It was awesome.
We walked the beach quite a bit, and found some really cool shells and Sand Dollars.
We rented wet suits, a surfboard, and a Boogie board. We had all been wanting to surf, and decided to make it happen.
We have lots of hero pics with the surfboard. I think Philip enjoyed it more than anyone. He did pretty well too.
Funny license plate in Cardiff just North of Del Mar. They have a statue called the Cardiff Kook that the locals dress up, and hang things on. The city paid an artist $92,000 to sculpt it, and no one likes it so they make fun of it.
Amy and I went out for a nice dinner at Brigantine (also on Ryan's recommendation). I wore my "nice clothes" (yes I do own pants). Then we went to downtown La Jolla to walk around.
No trip is complete without stopping by the local Patagonia. This one was in Cardiff about two minutes North of where we stayed. I really wanted a T-Shirt, but I have a hard time parting with $30 for a little bit of cotton. I ended up with some Patagonia Cardiff stickers, and got to look at some of Fletcher Chiounard's surfboards. Then we went to a local board builder's shop, and I got one of his T-Shirts. It says "don't be a Kook." Not hypocritical at all, do you think?
I even got Amy into a wet suit, and I think she had fun catching a few waves.
Beach ballet. No matter where we go, or what we do Caitlin would always rather be dancing.

Glad you had a good time. Great pictures.
Looks like you had a fun trip. It's good to see that you can clean up so well. The picture of Caitlin is great.
