My Love for San Diego!!
Monday, November 12, 2007
For of you wondering, the trip to California was awesome. My lab mate (Actin)and I made a trip out there to attend the Neuroscience conference. I must first point out that this conference is in no way fun to attend. It is always too large with too many people (around 37,000). As you can imagine, going out to dinner sucks because you have to fight with the other 36,999 people for those few tables in those few good restaurants. Thus, you spend much of your evening waiting for food or even a refill of water, only to stand in line for the bathroom....it's a vicious cycle.
However, this year was great for soooo many reasons.
First and foremost, Actin and I were able to spend time with 'CC' since she has moved away and left us behind. We had a great time during our 'sharks' reunion with lots of margaritas (daily actually...just like old times!).
Second, we attended the zoo. The San Diego zoo is by far one of the best and I always visit zoo's when I am in a new town. I LOVED IT!
Third, we went to Sea World. It is always a good day when we see the whales, but I have to admit the best part was when we sat in the soak zone repeatedly without getting wet. On our last and final show we decided to tempt fate again. We should have known! The funny thing is 'CC' sat in the middle of Actin and I and got soaked while we only got mildly wet. The look on her face after was priceless...that is my favorite memory thus far. (Picture is pre-soaking...hehehehehe!!!)
Fourth, we went to the beach. It was a wonderful afternoon of playing in the water and talking about nothing important.
So to summarize, San Diego rocks and Kentucky sucks...who would have guessed.
Sincerely,
Miserable In My State With No Coast!
