Feeding the 'lil Duckies

     I'm having an amazing time so far!!! Yesterday, I walked to "Wholesome Choice" grocery store a little over a mile from my apartment.  It is such an amazing store, they have all sorts of yummy food items AND they sell wine at the grocery stores here!! uh-mazing!  Just another reason to love Cali. 

beautiful scenery on my walk...


When I got home from the store, my roommate, our other roommates little brother and I all went to feed the ducks at the pond across the street.  There were little babies!!

I'm Here! Day One:

27 June 2011
Rachael and I woke up early in the morning, our alarms were set for just before 5AM.  Early.  We still couldn't manage to make it in the car and on our way until 20 after 6- a condition we must've inherited from our mother (lol).   We were running a little late for a Monday morning flight, but nevertheless, I managed to make it on the plane in time and jetted off for California.  I traveled over clouds, valleys, crop circles, the Rockies, canyons, and finally touched down in the Golden State a little after noon yesterday! 


 Nick picked me up from the airport and drove me to my apartment in Irvine.  One of the first things I did was pretty-up my room and organize the things out of my very heavy, ready-to-burst bags.



California is such a walker/biker friendly state.  I went for a walk to the University Plaza, where I found Trader Joe's and some other really amazing shops!! 




 Nick and I went out for delicious Mexican food and had a wonderful evening =)
Love you all!
