Headquarters Campground

It turned out that the very awesome campsite we found was not actually a designated campsite, so a ranger came by this morning and asked us to move our tents. We got a spot a little further up, but it wasn’t as cosy, so the boys went scavenging and found a spot at a campground just down the road.

I didn’t really want to move campgrounds at first, it seemed like a hassle to pack everything up, but I didn’t wanna be queen about it so I just kept quiet and let someone else make the decision.
It turned out the move was great! No more surround sound from the several large parties that was playing loud music from 8am to 3am. The music was really starting to do my head in.
We set up new camp and had lunch. Holy crap, these people brought the whole fridge with them! It’s only 4 of us yo!

The new campground also had running water, so we could wash up and cool down without having to run down to the river.

We headed into “town” to have an ice cream and pick up new ice for our food and beverages and got back ready to jump in the river.

After an hour or so of play, we saw this thing swimming by and declared the party being over, so we headed back to the tents for a nap and dinner.

Late night snack; grilled banana!

BBQ Fish

We are going camping this weekend and I am responsible for dinner on Saturday. Fish and veggies in a tinfoil pouch over the open fire. Is it Saturday yet?

Dinner

I had other plans for the night, but when I got invited to Pasta Dinner at the Winn I re-arranged my plans. I much rather get fed and hang with friends than do a bunch of “must-do’s”.

Eating

Veronica and Erik’s lives revolves around eating. I don’t sit down and have breakfast at home very often, but I love it when it happens! They had sneaked out and bought fresh bagels in the morning while I was sleeping.

It’s been really hot lately, and I just wanted to jump in the water. We drove up to north of Malibu, but the spot we wanted was all busy and with a $8 entrance fee. We did not want to pay to go to the beach, so we returned back south and had lunch at Malibu Seafood.

After me jumping in the ocean and some shopping on Main Street I got a request from the backseat for donuts.

Sushi Night

There’s nothing better than being picked up at the airport and getting fed by friends!

Everyone laughs at my version of Sushi… California Roll, wrapped in soy paper.

Thanksgiving

We celebrated the official American Turkey day at Fandyland. Good food, good friends, good time!

Marzipan Loafs

The whole month of December means Christmas for me, it’s only 3 weeks left and I am so excited! The preps continued today with the making of the marzipan loafs.
