On Wednesday night after work we left for Las Vegas and got there about 10 pm. We stayed at the Excliabur hotel, the one that looks like a castle. I was pretty exhausted by the time we got there, so you can imagine how annoyed I was went we had to stand in line to check in for 30 minutes, but once we got checked in, the receptionst gave us an upgrade to a jaccuzi room for free. Made waiting in line for so long so much better.
The next day we tried to head out to see the sights early because- 1. we knew I would get tuckered out fast, and 2. we knew it was gonna be hotter than a sauna by noon. We started walking the strip and Scott was loving it, cause he had never been there before. But I was dying of heat already! It was already almost 95 degrees at 10 am! But it didn't phase Scott too bad, he grew up living in Houston, Texas. So for him this was pretty normal. We finally made it over to Serendipty 3 for lunch to try their famous frozen hot chocolate. In my personal experience with the place, the food was REALLY REALLY overpriced. It took us 35 minutes to get our burger and pizza (which were 16 bucks a piece) and they werent even that great. But the frozen hot chocolate was great though! Worth 14 dollars, maybe not. But I would try it again for sure!
After lunch we went shopping at H&M and I got baby boo a tiny pair of baby uggs. Ohhhh yes, those will be used:) We also stopped by places like the Coke and M&M store which were super fun. After all the fun in Vegas it was time to continue on our way to California, which I didn't mind one bit, because I was ready to be somewhere a lot cooler.
We drove to Murrieta, California where my uncle Colby and aunt Denise live. We were lucky enough to stay with them for most of the remaining trip. Here is Scott enjoying his life being the human bouncy castle for my cousins:
On our first full day in Cali we went down to downtown San Diego, which by the way is AMAZING! I have been there before and it was great, but its not till you are pregnant in the summer, that you can fully enjoy a place that is a perfect 70 degrees on a sunny day in August haha. We went to little Italy and had lunch at an awesome little hole in the wall restraunt.
After lunch we headed over to Coronado Island. This was one of my favorite places to visit on the trip. It was awesome to just hang out at the beach with my man
After the beach we headed over to Extraordinary Desserts and met up with my best friend Ashley and her fiance! We got some very delicious, very filling desserts, and it was so great to meet him and finally be reunited with her! We LOVED our first day out in California!
Stay tuned for Part 2! (Hopefully tomorrow)
