Finally a post!

OMG This has been a whirlwind of a week! Let's start at the beginning...

Friday: Our plane was supposed to live at 7:40, delayed to 8:25. So we board around 8:30ish but the pilot is in Orlando and didn't arrive on the plane until 9. Then we had to de-ice the plane and didn't take off until around 9:40. Arrived in Phoenix around midnight. While waiting for the luggage they have a drill and all the sirens and lights flicker. So around 3am we finally find my Aunt's house in the dark.

Saturday (early): We wake up, still very tired, and drive to Supersitution Mountains and climb them all day. Ate in Tortilla Flat, odd town.

Sunday: Went to a beautiful church, believe it was United Church of Christ. Met my cousin and her boyfriend there and drove to Jerome. This was about 5,000 ft above sealevel. All this city had was art galleries, my aunt is in to buying art. Then we spent the night at my cousin's condo.

Monday: Wake up early, yet again. Walk around Arizona State University while my cousin is in class. Ate at a Sonic! lol Then around 11:30 left for Santee, CA. About 6 hours later we get to my great-great-uncle's trailer. lol He's old...So he goes by himself to get pizza and his wife tells us that he has dementia...So should we have went with him? lol So he brings back 5! pizzas. Way too much since they ate only one piece each. Stayed in a shady motel that was very creepy in Carlsbad, CA.

Tuesday: Drove up to Rancho Santa Magarita to visit my Dad's uncle and cousin. Walked along the beach of the ocean in Laguna Beach. They live in the freakin OC. There house was huge, I guess Kobe was supposedly moving into their subdivision. So we spent the night there.

Wednesday or today: Drove into LA to visit my cousin who goes to school out here. Ate at Pink's (which has a wiki page...lol) and ate a huge hotdog with bacon, cheese, chili all wrapped up in a burrito. whoa...Drove around and went to the Getty Center. I'm told this is the most famous museum. So I am just standing and a security guard comes up to me and starts to whisper in my ear. It doesn't sound like English and I think he told me that he saw me in the other room and I don't look beautiful when I yawn. Ok...Now we are at a Ramada Inn and going out for Sushi soon with my cousin.

Tomorrow we are going to the beach and Universal Studios. Coming back Saturday, feel free to call me anytime, this has a lot of boring car rides! lol
