We've been down in beautiful San Diego since Thursday night...have you missed me!?! I've sure missed all of you and can't wait to read your posts to see what everyone has been up to. The weather here has been incredible, in the 80's...and we're just steps away from the beach.
There was a Hobie Cat race scheduled for Saturday but I think it ended up being cancelled due to the wind. It kept getting postponed and postponed but all of the boats lined up on the beach waiting for the race to begin was a beautiful sight to see.
With all of the wind, there were quite a few parasailers enjoying themselves too. This is one sport I will never try. The wind was so strong I was surprised it didn't lift these surfers clear out of the water and deliver them across the ocean...and from what I understand, it can happen. I was told they have emergency release pulls that can be used just in case the wind gets to strong and carries them up, up, and away!
This RV park is very upscale, yet family friendly. Saturday night the park put on a 50's party for all of the guests...DJ, dancing, prizes. We had a ball! Our friends are very outgoing and fun so we always have a great time together no matter where we are or what we're doing but we also have alot of young families that belong to this club too. It was adorable to watch the dad's dancing with their little girls...so cute!
We were supposed to be heading home today but hubby wanted to stay another night along with some friends. I said fine just as long as we don't have yet ANOTHER big meal. I swear I'm not eating another thing until Wednesday!! I haven't felt an ounce of hunger since before we got here. Here is a little run down of some of the food we've eaten since Thursday...
filet mignon
scrambled eggs
bagels
fruit
potatoes
chips and homemade salsa
cheese and crackers
grilled salmon
steak kabobs
rice
garlic bread
salad
cheesecake
reuben sandwiches
shrimp cocktail
more chips and homemade salsa
hamburgers/hot dogs
potato salad
cake
What even makes it more frustrating is that our friends LOVE to cook and literally whip up these gourmet meals each month...do you know how this makes me look...the one who doesn't particularly like to cook and basically eats nothing but salads. They were talking yesterday about cooking cordon bleu and veal parmesan next month! Give me a break people...I said "hey guys, THIS IS CAMPING...haven't you ever heard of hobo stew and chili!?!" They looked at me like I was crazy. Sooo, if you guys have any good recipes to pass on, please send them my way (although I will never ever be able to compete with these cooks nor do I try!)
I thought I'd leave you with one last picture. I followed these cute little guys all around this morning trying to get a decent shot. Aren't they just darling...a momma and her 12 littles.

Thanks again for my fun pink package.
What a great camping trip you all had. I love "virtual camping" through your posts!
I agree, what's with the gourmet food? Beans and hotdogs are good with me. I'll have to think of some yummy meals and send you some recipes. You can surprise them all!!!
You may not be cooking like the others, but you bring so much to the table by being there, being you.
Darling ducks.... can you imagine being mother to 12 of any thing??
What fun! I'm thinkin' that camping means relaxation. Cooking and relaxation don't go together in my book! LOL!

Oh Linda you look like you had soooo much fun!!!! I could just get lost in your photos and descriptions. I thought about you on the weekend because I spoke to Jennifer H and she told me about your gorgeous good mail package - you are such a wonderful woman, so lovely - have a great week Linda!!!
You 'stopped by' my blog---thanks for the comment!!! I just want to say...I want to come camping with you!!! You know how to EAT!! My advice about the Pepsi thing...DONT GO TO DIET!! Nasty stuff that is.
Yes- I truly have missed you. I have been checking your blog on & off all day everyday since you've been gone, hoping you where having a great time.
I can't even imagine doing the wind surfing thing. that would scare me to be fall in the middle of the ocean & my luck right in a circle of sharks!!
I think all the food sounds so yummy & I am with on not having any idea what to cook. Let those that love to cook have their fun & just enjoy! I know you bring so much to the table in so many other ways..
Glad to have you back. I missed ya!
The food sounds yummy and the getaway DIVINE!
Wish I were there!
Oh Linda, I love San Diego! I haven't been in about 10 years but it is beautiful!!
