Eric opted for pineapple upside down cake for tonights snack so Lili got herself the little cinnamon buns.
Our hotel was supposed to have breakfast but they told us it was light continental with to go items and then it wasn't opened at all. So we had breakfast at Heaven on Earth. Which didn't disappoint :)
We crossed into California early morning and needed sunglasses right away.
The warmer weather is sooo nice. We hit 17 today. It gets warmer as we go.
Fei and I popped into a Dollartree while Eric got gas. We picked up $3 lunch packs. To make up for the pricey breakfast :)
Fei had a wee sniffle yesterday so Lili is being all extra.
Blue skies as far as you can see. The drive has been good. The kids are crazy quiet. They're mostly listening to music with ear phones and napping. Only one movie again today.
I've had way too much quiet time to contemplate. Eric doesn't talk much when he's driving. I've learned through the years not to glog his brain with all of my musings. However today I did whine a little about the current plan.
We are about 3.5 hours away from the shore. We are going to Santa Monica Pier and having dinner at Bubba Gumps after exploring. Everyone is happy with this plan except me. We are SO close to Disneyland. The beach, an aqaurium and fried fish are just not appealing in comparison. So I made lots of optional plans but in the end it's just me who really wants to go. Instead of pushing through tonight we stopped at 6 for dinner at an In and Out and checked into a Quality Inn in Kettlemens. Another relaxing early night in the hotel with wifi.
This hotel is brand new so that's a bonus.
The girls are together again tonight. We'll see how that goes. Fingers crossed for peace.
