Encinitas, CA

We headed south to visit with my dear friend Jessica. But the week did not go as we had hoped. I got sick. Had a nice visit with Jessica's doctor but too little time with Jessica.

We took advantage of two beach front state campgrounds. The first was in South Carlsbad and the second in Cardiff by the Sea. Great locations for beach activities. A bit pricey with few amenities, but what the heck, you are looking at the Pacific Ocean.

Encinitas is a funky little town. Philip and I hit up all the thrift shops looking for our New Year's Eve outfits and doing a bit of Christmas shopping until, wham...I got the flu+sinus infection+who knows what blues. I'll spare you the details and instead share the few images we have from this stop.











Jessica, thank you for the head massage. I had 24 headache-free hours. Aidan, thanks for be so well behaved. We shall return!

Merry Christmas to all of our family and friends. Philip and I park the van for a week and fly to Vermont for the holiday. Safe travels all!
