Yay!! I had such a fun time on vacation!
I'm back to work and it's first day of this semester at school, but even though I didn't get much sleep last night, am definitely feeling so refreshed!
Arrived Saturday early in the day, got rental car (black PT Cruiser, woo!) and hopped on the freeway (lots of construction around the airport though, ended up taking a wrong turn, and got to Milpitas, woops, that was only a fifteen minute-ish detour though), then headed over to the Valley Fair to grab breakfast and head to Lush. Hadn't brought shampoo, soap, etc with me 'cause had planned to go there and buy those items. Peeked in Sanrio and the Lego shop also!
Went from there to Tanya's (my cousin) house and visited for a bit with her and Cassie and Tris (her kids) and then went to go meet up with Winter and her boyfriend in downtown Mtn View for coffee, photo taking, visiting, etc. Went into some shops, then went back to my cousin's place. My aunt and uncle picked Matt and I up for dinner, spent a while visiting, etc, then called it a night.
Sunday morning went out hella early to meet up with Johnny and Winter downtown for coffee, breakfast, hanging out. Went into more shops, wandered around, had an awesome time. Left there about 1:30ish to go see Casper, toured Matt all the way down El Camino until it turned into Almeda, haha. All went over to Duke of Edinburgh for lunch (cornish pasty, yum), visited there for a long while, then Tina phoned up, and came down to meet with us. Went to Cupertino Square (Vallco), wandered, spent some time in the arcade there, then saw film "My Bloody Valentine" in 3-d.
Monday spent lots of time visiting with family, headed into Sunnyvale for lunch at Pasta Market and had a walk around Sunnyvale Community Center (it was 70F/21C, gorgeous gorgeous!) duck pond, showed Matt where I used to live, and had a very nice day. Went back for more visiting with family, then went to drop off rental car and go to airport. Flight was delayed about an hour and a half, but had coffee and dinner at airport and did some reading.
Great weekend!
