Day 4 - Tuesday















Didn't do much this day. Just used the day to have free to "beach it" and do whatever the kids wanted. We had a nice breakfast, then headed over to the beach. Note to self: Buy tent for beach that Chase can close easily, without me laughing at him while he tries and pissing him off AND being pure entertainement for the entire Hotel Del Coronado beach go'ers. Yep, note to self on that one.
We did go to the beach where:

A. John was knocked over by a wave within the first 5 minutes of being there and therefore does NOT want to go into the ocean...EVER AGAIN.
B. Caroline likes to eat sand...just doesn't like the taste. I told her it doesn't taste good...but who the hell am I??
C. After a long time at the beach you ask yourself "Maybe it is time to pack up and go"...GO FOR IT. Do not pass go, do not collect $200, JUST GO. I waited, after that point, and the whole 5 minute walk back to the hotel was HATING myself. NOT FUN. Just a warning for you rookies
It was sad to think that the days had gone by so fast and that our time in paradise was almost over. We hung around the hotel that night and tried to savor the last of the 70 degree weather. So WONDERFUL
OMG - Almost forgot. So, that night, we were at the Hotel Del, outside, on the patio overlooking the Pacific Ocean. Caroline wouldn't go to sleep, so I decided to take her for a walk in her stroller, while Chase and John kept the seats warm at our favorite outdoor place at the Del, Babcook and Story. So, I was walking back towards the table, 30 min later, Caroline asleep, and my sweet little John Michael was so excited to see me that he JUMPED up from his chair, knocked over the table AND the 2 glasses of wine that were on top of it. So typical Wofford that I cannot even being to explain - my sisters will get this. "Unfortunate" luck seems to follow my husband. The waitress was SO NICE and I figured that at this kind of high end hotel, she deals with some real assholes, so the fact that we were falling over ourselves to apologize...and a good tip...ALL was forgotten.
