Todd Girls' Weekend 2015, Catalina Island

Image
Setting sail out of Balboa early on Friday Morning We enjoyed snorkling and swimming at Hamilton Cove's little beach We enjoyed sitting in this nice big spa     Heidi got a tiny bag of candy for $8 and I got a  Carmel apple big enough for all of us at the candy store with the taffy in the window. On our first night there, Asher left a hilarious pleading Voxer message, with a shaky voice to Heidi,  "Daddy locked me in a closet and says he'll hit me with a broomstick if I come out.......Please come home."   That little boy is a natural actor and Ned (a great father) has the craziest sense of humor! Hamilton Cove 1-77  -- where we stayed:       We at lots of yogurt breakfasts on this sweet balcony We watched this "Downtown", video -- over and over....Macklemore & Ryan Lewis from the Tonight Show..we watched this video and the girls sang this song all weekend... https://www.youtube.c...

Our Cruise to Mexico, February 2015

Puerta Vallarta We had a blast in Puerta Vallarta Zip-Lining, Rappelling, Water Sliding The day in Puerta Vallarta started with a boat ride to a hidden cove south of the city and port. After the boat ride, we all loaded up in these yellow Mercedes climbers to get high up in the mountains to the rain forest.  We're kissing because we're glad to still be alive and we have no idea what's coming up for us. After the yellow vehicles, its on to a mule to make it to the true outback. The first line was super high and very, very long. There were a lot of variety in the zip lines and zipping areas. John on the first long zip. There were a few surprise water slides on the long, long course.    It took a great leap of faith for me to take the first step down this waterfall face. John looks way cooler than me in these shots.   And what was this madness?!  We were like the "Silver Surfers"  about 300 feet above the ground.   Back down the hill at the end of the day...
