On Top Of The World

Nick and I live in small quarters. I keep reminding Nick that if we lived in Europe, this would be considered a mansion, as you haven’t seen small spaces until you’ve traveled abroad (or lived in New York). With mom and dad in town for the holiday weekend and Stefanie and Andrew staying with us from LA, it only made sense to make our apartment home base. With 6 adults and 2 dogs running around, our home felt like a stuffed clown car. At one point, my neighbors looked surprised at the endless number of people (and dogs) that kept coming out of our apartment. Nick and I definitely learned this weekend, as long as you’re with good company it doesn’t matter how nice or big your home is (although it would have been nice to have a larger table and enough chairs!) Oh well until the next dinner party……

Here are some of my favorite pictures from Saturday’s walk in Laguna and our family dinner party!

  1. where do you guys go hiking in Laguna? It's my birthday on Saturday and if the weather stays beautiful, it sounds like a nice way to spend the morning.

  2. It was a beautiful walk. At first it was a little rugged, but there was a paved road that lead to a soccer field and a park (with bathrooms).

    Take PCH South
    Left on Broadway
    Right on Forest
    Left on Park
    Take Park to the top of the mountain (2 miles roughly)
    The road will T, take a right to Meadows (which is also known as Old Top of the World).
