Big Sur

About a month ago we went on a day trip to Big Sur. We drove down the famous highway 1 and just stopped on the side of the road whenever things got pretty. Now that school is over we can enjoy our weekends, and we have been! Northern California has been beautiful so far. We are the luckiest to be able to live here, so we will try to soak in as much of it as we can.

The whole day was very foggy and quite chilly, but it was still enjoyable. The landscape looked like it came out of a movie. 

The water was incredibly blue, and there was a waterfall right on the beach. Unfortunately people weren't allowed in this beach, so we could only look from afar. 

We have gone on more trips since, but I haven't been bringing my camera. Both my camera and lenses are almost 5 years old, and they've been rattling like maracas and refusing to focus on things. Hopefully I will be able to replace them within the next couple of years. For now I will have to keep trying to make them work! 

The Bay Area: Montara Beach

A couple of weeks ago we decided to go relax at the beach. It was a really warm day, but we know how deceiving the bay area is, so we brought blankets, scarfs, jackets, sweaters. We got there pretty early and we wanted to wait for the sunset, so we stayed for about 4 hours, and it was sooo chilly. The whole time I tried to stay on the ground so that the cold wind wouldn't freeze me. We read a bit, and we even brought some food, and a little stove to warm it on.

On the Road: Southern Florida!

We spent the last two weeks of the "relaxed" part of our trip in Florida with my family. After this the trip became really chaotic and we didn't have much chance of doing anything fun. While in Florida, we got to spend time with my little nephew, who gets 5 inches taller every time I see him. We went to the beach, and lounged around aaaall day. Who knows when will be the next time I'll be able to do this?
