first prev 1 next lastMy wife is awesome. Our marriage is awesome. This trip that she planned for us was awesome. 10 years of awesome...and counting!
We traveled down through Utah into California. We stayed in San Diego for a few days, then did a day in LA, a day in San Francisco, and a day in Yosemite. We even hit some hot springs on the way home.
Two nights were in a motel, the rest were in our minivan RV. We even slept on Neptune Drive, Mission Bay, and at Battery Spencer above the Golden Gate Bridge.
