Steelers suckkkkkkk
Saturday 2/4, B and I woke up kind of early and started to get ready for our hike in Borrego Springs. Dad printed out directions for us and we took the Corvette out there. It was a pretty uneventful ride out there, except we stopped in Santa Ysabel for some pastries and the drive was absolutely beautiful. When we got to the visitor center we went to the bathroom and started on the trail, but we were more than a half mile from the campground and then had to hike to the trailhead from that point…we didn’t know you could park closer, so by the time we got to the trailhead we were both tired and hot. We got some more water and cooled off a little bit, then talked to a woman who said many people have been seeing big horn sheep around stop #9. We saw the sheep, there were 6 of them I think, then continued up to the spring. We hung out a little at the top and had some snacks then trekked back down, which felt faster and cooler than our hike up. The signs said that the hike was 1.5 miles but it sure felt longer. We saw the sheep again on the way down and also saw a deer hauling balls when we were on the trail back to the Visitor Center. We headed back home with a stop for lunch in Julien and made it home by 5:00. We hung out at home with Dad just watching tv and reading before Mom got home with Aubrie and we made the pot pie and watched home movies until like 11:30.
Friday 2/3, Court came in and got us up around 9:00 so we got out of there around 10:00 and head to the bagel place and I got a delicious one before we headed south to the Zoo. We drove through Balboa Park pretty quickly then headed to the parking lot and in, with only a $22 entrance fee rather than $32 which is what we thought. We started around the park and had a lot of fun seeing all the animals and reading about them. We saw the new baby panda first and she was sooo cute and I got a picture right before she turned her head. After that we mapped out a sensible route around the park. It was a very fun day with a kind of crappy lunch, but by the end we were all exhausted and skipped some of the reptile stuff like the tortoises, but otherwise saw everything and finally left around 3:30 and headed back to Court’s. We went in and got our stuff then headed back up, hit some traffic and decided to go 101 from Del Mar and stopped at the store for Mom to get some chicken and we got two whole chickens for $5, it was crazy. Mom grilled chicken for dinner and we had homemade fries which was all delicious, then we all piled into the hot tub for about an hour or so listening to Queen and Sting. We showered off after we got out and went to bed.
Thursday 2/2, B and I didn’t get up all that early but did manage to take a nice walk around the park and have some breakfast before Mom got home. Mom introduced us to all of her card playing friends before we took off to go get lunch at the Daily News Café. Then we hit Spin and I bought Seven Swans and Gorillaz before we headed to the outlets and looked at Barneys and the Puma outlet, where if all goes well we will have matching outfits before this trip is through. We left to pick up Aubrie and Co at school and took the girls home. We were going to go back out but were kind of exhausted so we laid around until it was time to pack our stuff for our stay at Court’s and to visit Mom at her center for her special class. We stayed there until Court called, got directions and took off. We left pretty quickly for dinner at Aloha Sushi and I got this great dish called “Mochi Chicken” it was like fried chicken but had sweet breading rather than salty and it was a breast piece all cut up not like drumsticks or anything. We walked to the Comedy Store after that which started at 8:00, and we got a 2 for 1 ticket price. The show was really long and there were a couple of good comics but out of like 25, it was way too long with some really bad comics. There were some really drunk people who kept repeating everything the comics would say, and Kelly was pretty funny too with critiques loud enough for each comic to hear. We finally dragged Court out of there around 10:25 and headed back to her house to go to bed.
