Girls Weekend 2008

Let's start with our hotel.
The Doubletree Irvine Spectrum.
It was NOT spectacular, but not bad, either.
It was just okay.
The location was just where I thought it would be,
but that turned out to be rather inconvenient.
Lesson learned.
Next year it's back to the Hyatt Regency Irvine,
or maybe somewhere nearer the ocean.We shopped at the Irvine Spectrum Mall.
Again, not spectacular but okay.
Ana's favorite store was closed for renovation,
so we ended up back at Fashion Island.
That's where she spent all her money.
Saturday was beach day.
I didn't feel unsafe as the earthquake was the week before.

Skin cancer abatement.

Sunscreen, clothing and a big umbrella.

Ana was ready for the ocean.

We were very near the Balboa Pier.

Do you see my umbrella down there?

We left it while we went to lunch,
and walked on the pier.





On the drive home, we stopped in Baker to see the Mad Greek,

which turned out to be a Mad House, so we left.

I'll turn the post featuring Friday night's activities over to a guest blogger, since she tells the story better than I do. She's always been so good with embellishment!

You're not getting links, becasue I'm just too tired.
