Back from Cali

It's so good to be home.  There is nothing in the world like coming home after a long vacation - even a very nice, very relaxing & fun vacation. 

I know that I said that I would be blogging about my yoga adventures in California (and there were many), but the truth is I just didn't feel like opening up my computer.  I really stepped away from it all for two weeks and through my practice decided that my focus needed to be firmly set on my family and our vacation.  So, that is what I did. 

California is a beautiful state and I now have a new appreciation for it's beauty & diversity.  We packed in so much it would be difficult to share every detail.  But I will say a few things. 

San Francisco has it all except it is freezing cold there in July.  The best yoga classes at Yoga Tree in Castro (Rusty Wells) that I've ever experienced & the most challenging.  Amazingly beautiful city - friendly people, Alcatraz, delicious food!  Tess and I walked those hilly streets for miles & miles.  I don't know how anyone living there could ever be chubby.  I got a workout everyday just walking around. 

Napa - oh, the wine.  Wine country... & Ubuktu - the best food ever!  Hands down the best meal we had the entire vacation & all vegetarian.  I am still dreaming about those potatoes. 

Driving down the coast on Pacific Highway 1 was the best day of the vacation.  We took a slow ride stopping in Carmel.  Carmel is like a fairytale kind of place.  The trees don't even look real.  It is so beautiful and charming that I can't imagine anyone visiting there doesn't fall in love with it's streets.  It was very, very expensive though and we met some of the rudest people that I've ever met.  Snotty, rude, very rich people.  After a few hours we headed S and took a slow ride down through Big Sur.  Big Sur is magnificent.  God must have really been proud of what He created there.  I can't even describe how amazing it is.  You just really have to experience it for yourself.  I cannot wait to go back someday and spend some time there just hiking around.  I think Ed & I were speechless most of the ride just giggling like kids, pointing at the sights and taking it all in. 

Next was LA.  Blah.  We all hated it there.  It's a nasty, smoggy, filthy, crowded city.  We did go see the taping of "The Tonight Show" with Conan which was pretty cool.  My husband really enjoyed that since he actually watches the show.  I just kind of took it all in and thanked God that I didn't have to spend much time in LA. 

San Diego.  We fell in love with San Diego.  What is not to love?  Perfect frigging weather - PERFECT!  Perfect temperature.  No humidity.  No bugs.  No rain.  No clouds.  Just perfect sun, beautiful ocean breeze and perfect temperature ALL OF THE TIME.  I want to live there.  I would move there tomorrow if I could - no lie.  Gorgeous coastline.  Great people & awesome downtown.  If you've never been there.  GO.  Tomorrow if you can.  My brother lives there and he always says that he will never leave.  I now totally understand why. 

Great vacation.  Now back to reality which is a good thing.  I can't wait to get back to my studio.
