San Diego

We spent the week after Christmas in San Diego...not our typical leave the country vacation but it was a great family vacation! I did a lot of research about my family's history in La Jolla & San Diego...my Dad's Grandma is from there and her grandfather and his siblings had a lot to do with the growth of the city. We visited Ellen Browning Scripps park and had a picnic...Ellen was my grandma's aunt. We had great fish and chips on New Year's Eve at The Fishery, my Dad's cousin's restaurant in Pacific Beach. It was really cool to read about and discover things about my family that I never knew. It was also great to find out more about the Brown family...where Carson's middle name came from. We also went to Sea World with Phil & Brie and to the San Diego Zoo with Andy, Megan & Warren! Our weather was gorgeous and we had a really fun week to kick off 2012!
