I road-trip a lot. And when I say "a lot" I mean once every other month. What do they call that? A Roadgeek.
The latest road-tripping adventure was to California. Like all the other times.
I was invited by a kid in my ward to accompany him and two other peeps from the ward. I hesitated for a second and then thought, "Go Kenlynn. Make yourself some memories. Make some new friends." So, I did.
We headed out at 5:00 PM from Salt Lake City on a Tuesday night to meet the sunrise in San Francisco the next morning.
I had really only talked to James, but after approximately 40 hours in a car, I got to know Allexys and Ryan too. Road trips bring people together. It's true.
Picture POST!
San Fransisco:
 |
| I left my heart there. It's true. |
 |
| Bridges are really cool. Really really cool. |
 |
| We are tourists. (Ryan, Me, James) |
 |
| Such a pretty city. I want to go to there. |
 |
| China Town. |
 |
| Nighttime in the city. It's a beautiful but freezing city at night with lots of runners. |
Los Angeles/ Newbury Park
 |
| We couldn't find the real park, so we parked on the side of the road and frolicked through the trees. |
|
 |
| I'm really short. I'm almost as tall as Ryan when I have my hand stretched up. |
 |
| I'm a "Gamer Babe" |
 |
| Paramount Ranch. They should have given us wooden guns to play with. That would have been cool. |
 |
| Yay Zuma Beach. We got wet and played rugby. |
 |
| This is my "I'm embarrassed to be with you tourists" face |
 |
| The Hollywood sign is back there somewhere. |
 |
| Lots of hand-prints and foot-prints |
 |
| We found Swoop. |
 |
| Utah vs. UCLA game at the Rose Bowl. And yes, I do realize that I am not wearing a MUSS shirt and khaki shorts. Get over it. |
 |
| So many jumping pictures. Go Team! |
 |
After the game we crashed my family's ward activity. It was SO much fun! Lots of good food, incredible live music (my uncles band), and so much dancing. I had a blast. It was way more fun than the game was.

I wish I had more pictures that documented every little thing, but I don't even have a camera, so that wasn't going to happen. All you need to know is that this trip was a success and I can't wait till my next road trip next month (wherever it may be and with whomever it may be with).
A couple things:
ReplyDeleteYou guys get a lot of strangers to take pictures for you. I'm amazed at how many times there are four people in the pictures.
PLEASE ask for a camera for Christmas. It hurts me SO badly that you don't own one. Seriously. That is no way to live!
And thanks for Blogging. It is super exciting!
A stranger was only used once. We are awesome at self timers.
ReplyDeleteAlso, I want a camera before Christmas. I need to sit down with you sometime and we can look through Amazon.
