Newport Beach, CA Blog 2-End of Trip

Last time I finished I was enjoying the sunset on the shore with my buddies in Newport.  In recollection, now I wish I was back on that same shore instead of being bothered by this God awful heat in Arizona.

To grasp the technicals of the best Vacation EVER, we all shared the space of a quiet little three bedroom beach house equipped with two bathrooms. However, the only flaw with our little cookie cutter beach house was that....it was slumbering 18 people....no joke. We were basically on top of each other at night, fighting for the bathroom during the day(especially after dinner) but in reflection, I wouldn't of had it any other way. The memories made will forever stay with me, for reals though!

On Tuesday we headed to Fashion Island.  Fashion Island was great. My friend Ashley had to talk me out of buying a Rolex... and a puppy, but it was a great place to feel rich and important for at least a couple of hours. In fact, all of us were 100% certain that we were going to see a Kardashinan. But just our luck they decided to stay at home on the day of our outing!

Wednesday was the greatest day in my opinion! Disney day! I love Disneyland! We all got a little more bonding time and got to experience the new Cars Land! It was one hell of a day. I will let the pictures do the story telling!





























LOL


Zach the Magnificent! 




$30 wings that Zachy wouldn't buy for Paige. 

She was really upset, but Zachy still said no!




AMAZING! Just like the movie! 












Thursday we slept in. I mean being at the park from open to close was a little much! But we had such a blast that I was worth every penny/hurting feet/ hungry stomach and complaint! Made a trip to the beach and enjoyed each others company.












Friday was bittersweet. The last night in the beach house, but also knowing that we were coming home helped end the sadness. We  I had my end of the trip celebratory/ mandatory cigar and everyone else had hookah and cocktails on the patio. 






FOR THE RECORD: THE UofA WON THE COLLEGE WORLD SERIES!!!


Saturday we were up early. Cleaning the house and packing. I had to drop Jackie off at the airport in Ontario, CA. It was around an hour from the house. She will be in Sacramento for the next month. We have been hanging out a lot lately and It will definitely be a lonely month without her. But I still have my best buds in Tucson to help me from bordem. 



See ya later Jacks. You should be expecting a care package full of goodies real soon! 

Overall, California was just the vacation that I needed to help me from going crazy! Back to the real world. School starts soon and I couldn't be more ready! But to close one of my favorite vacations of all time, I will end with my favorite picture taken.
