My daughter, mom, and I woke up early to get to the beach before the crowds. It’s one of the first hot weekends in a while which usually means lots of traffic heading to the westside. We swam for hours, flew kites, and created sand castles. We also squeezed in some nap time.

The 14th Factory just popped up in Los Angeles, so, I decided to pop right in! It’s the newest pop up museum in the city at the moment and it’s getting a lot of positive feedback. I booked my ticket and made a whole afternoon of it. The 14th Factory really paid very close attention to detail. From the layout of the space, the food truck, and the super fancy port-a-potty’s. A very positive experience indeed and one that hopefully you get to experience!

Wow, this trip was great! I explored as much of London as I could. London is dynamic, eclectic, and fast. As I walked around and explored I met some people, none of which were from London, and it got me thinking, “What is a Londoner?” I suppose my conclusion is that London is a place that attracts many different people from different places for a variety of reasons.
Visiting Big Ben might have been one of the more touristy things I did on this trip. Tate Modern, on the outside, was quite busy but not so much on the inside. These beautiful streets were empty with people, and Neals Yard was nearly impossible to find because it’s tucked away in a little alley, and if you don’t know what you are suppose to look for, you will miss it!
My days were all very different from each other, but the common denominator was that I got lost every single day, at some point, which sometimes cost me hours of my time. Ack!

My daughter and I came to Iceland for Spring Break and we made it just in time for my niece’s birthday party!
Home we went!

My friend allowed me to use her beautiful desert home for the weekend, so me and a different friend came out to play! We lounged, hiked the trail in the community, and walked around Downtown Palm Springs (about 10 minuets away). The home interior and exterior are quite special. It even rotates as well!
