California Vacation, A Tale in Pictures : The Conclusion

Safely in San Diego, Jenni and Bryan hung with the family enjoying such delights as Old Town Mexican Cafe and In N Out (finally!). Tummies full, they headed out of El Cajon and ventured to San Diego's apple country - if only to prove to Bryan and Washington isn't the only place with apples!

After visiting antique stores and the general hardware store, there wasn't anything left to do but enjoy apple pie... At the Julian Pie Company.

These are Jenni's folks who nicely treated them to the aforementioned goodies.

Leaving Julian, they passed through the areas recently hit by the fires. Seeing many blackened trees and ground, it was amazing to see how many houses had been saved, and to realize how much work went into save each house.

Watching the sunset as they weaved along the winding road, they said goodnight to one more day in fabulous California and prepared for their last official day of vacation.

Their final evening in California was spent at wedding of a high school friend of Jenni. Stacey said her "I do" as we all commented how beautiful she looked. Bryan and Jenni laughed and chatted with friends Heather and Love over drinks and appetizers. Sadly, Jenni was struck by an intolerable migraine headache and they had to leave the festivities early. Such an incredible bummer. While they would have loved to stay at the wedding longer, they are thankful for the few extra hours they had with Jenni's parents.

The next morning they packed up their bags in a hurry and took off in a jet plane headed to Honolulu. Remembering 10 great days in one terrific state, they both felt this trip had changed their lives forever.


The End.
