And Away We Go
I should be packing. I’ve spent almost the whole day trying to wrap up my work neatly, so I can go on vacation with a guilt-free conscience. I wasn’t able to tie as pretty a bow on everything as I would have liked, but I still have tomorrow morning, too.
I hope to be on the road by 10:00 a.m. We’ll see. I pulled out the packing list I made for our Bodega Bay vacation at Thanksgiving 2007; it was funny seeing some of the items we had to bring along, like baby food.
We are all very excited to leave tomorrow! We are hoping to hook up with a few friends while we are near Capitola. I hope the house where we are staying will be cool. It should be!
Our plans for the week off include:
- beach play
- sand castles
- strolling through town
- eating out
- eating in
- Santa Cruz boardwalk
- redwoods
- meeting friends
- flying kites
- naps
- cocktails
- cuddles
- play
- reading
- knitting
- and some working
Sounds heavenly to me, except for that last little part. Wish us luck and safe travels!
