Closing out the work week on Friday was a busy day at work for me as we had company photos and lunch brought in. I spent the morning getting all caught up on my work and spent the rest of the day running errands, setting up for lunch, taking company photos, helping with the photos and cleaning up after all the days events. After getting off at 5:00pm, traffic was a little mellower than usual and I got home in my normal commute time. Friday night was spent relaxing, making dinner and watching TV with Robbie, then hitting the hay fairly early.
Saturday I woke at 8;00am and did chores around the house. Ate lunch about 1:00pm then Robbie and I headed out to the beach. We went to one of my favorite beach spots, Coronado Island and drove around exploring some of the parts I hadn't seen yet. We ended up going to a brand new beach to me south on the island called Silver Strand Beach. Robbie got in the water while I laid out, soaking up with sun. We walked around some then headed to Seaport Village downtown. We walked around the Port of San Diego, saw the famous World War II sailor and nurse statue, took photos and walked along the water looking at the ships. There were some festivals going on but by the time we got there they were closing down as it was getting dark. We never made it back to check it out before the weekend was up.
On Sunday we slept in, and tuned into church via live viewing online. After church we ate some lunch quickly and then headed to Seaworld. Robbie and I both love Seaworld! I hadn't been all year but had wanted to. Robbie had been wanting to go down to Mission Beach by Seaworld to watch their summer fireworks shows but hadn't gotten around to it either. Since it was one of the last days of summer we headed down and spent about 9 hours at the park. We watched some of the shows and made reservations to Dine with Shamu (something I had always wanted to do). The majority of time in the park we spent at Dolphin Point. I could've stayed there all day watching the dolphins swimming around. We got a front and center view of a group that were able to be in the water with the trainer for some time with the dolphins and I was able to rub one of the dolphins noises and fin during an interaction. It was a blast! We sat in the soak zone (Robbie's idea) for the nighttime Shamu show and then were able to see the fireworks right after.
Monday we had talked about going hiking and to the beach again at Torrey Pines but ended up deciding to stay at home and relax instead. We watched TV/movies and just hung out, enjoying our time off together. We were also able to skype with my family back in Virginia for a little bit and I took about a 3 hour nap late afternoon/evening.
Today it's back to the normal work routine for me while Robbie gets to enjoy one more day off of work as he runs errands and gets all his normal weekend things done before the work week starts. All in all, we had a great weekend and really enjoyed our extra time off work! Until next time, enjoy some of our pictures from this weekend :)
