California Adventures: Tustin to San Francisco

Arriving at my destination of Orange County, California to celebrate my sister's 50th birthday was an exercise in extreme diligence, strategy and emotion.

Only 2 days before my father was moved to a short-term rehab center for recovery of liver failure brought on by medication, I left home to spend 9 days with Chris Lentz and my brother Greg and family and sister, Tanya. Although it was a planned trip for a happy occasion, my emotions and energy were low. This movie is a reflection and videologue of our vacation together as siblings.

TUSTIN & Carlsbad photos



After a relaxing four days with my sisters, I rented a car in Tustin, CA and drove by myself to San Francisco. It was a peaceful and enduring 8-hour drive through dessert and ocean views.

Brad, Carson, and Jessie flew into San Francisco and met me. While Brad attended a medical conference, the kids and I explored the city zoo and downtown Children's Academy of Science. We had a delightful time.

In our rental car, Carson, Jessie and I traveled to the San Francisco Academy of Sciences Children's Science Museum. It was a fabulous museum with modern and newly renovated buildings and dynamic displays. Here is a slideshow of pictures I took.

After our 3-day stay in the city, we took the rental car to Monterrey, Ca and visited the WORLD FAMOUS Aquarium in the quaint city.

We also stayed over-night and explored Pebble Beach and Carmel by the Sea. The scenery was beautiful and refreshing to behold.

Our magical Summer vacation was over much too quickly, however, it was a welcome beginning to a fun-filled SUMMER!!
