Valentiniversary

I've been living in Tucson for almost four years, and until this past weekend, I had yet to spend more than an hour in the state of California.  Considering that San Diego and its beaches are only a 5-hour drive from here, I'm actually a little bit ashamed of that fact.  But, don't worry.  Now that I've officially visited San Diego, I can say with assurance that I will go back... in warmer and less rainy weather.

Josh and I drove to San Diego last Friday and stayed for three nights.  The weekend marked our two year anniversary of being together (and a few days past Valentine's day), so it was a good excuse to get out of town, eat some amazing food, and do some sightseeing (not that I ever need an excuse to visit the ocean...).  We dealt with rain and clouds on-and-off for the whole trip, but it didn't stop us from having a great time.  We walked on beaches, toured the city, visited the wild animal park, checked out the tide pools, ate at some fantastic restaurants, and did a little shopping.  It was both fun and relaxing.
