Then we started our drive down to La Jolla to Christiaan’s aunt and uncle’s house. I’ve never seen someone falling asleep and freaking out at the same time on a car ride. Haha Chloe managed to do that. One moment she would be fighting to stay awake with Lucas, bless her heart, but could barely keep her eyes open, the next she would be out like a light, and then all the sudden she would wake up freaking out saying, “Lucas! It’s not a race to see who’s first, it’s a race to see who’s alive!!” Haha poor Chloe was exhausted along with the rest of us, but Lucas got us there safely as usual.
The house was BEAUTIFUL!! The girls got to stay in the basement and the guys in the upstairs apartment. We were in heaven after an almost restless night and day of running around the theme park. We slept like rocks. There may or may not have been a problem with the toilet and a misunderstanding with the guys waking the girls up for church buuut… we won’t reveal that at this time (cough cough). Visits to the San Diego temple and La Jolla Cove were much needed before we headed home. The weather was PERFECT, the temple was stunning as always, and the beach was nude. Okay maybe it wasn’t but Tyler almost was!! Haha yeppp he did it. He ran into the ocean in his boxers though the weather was cold and windy. That kid’s got GUTS.
The drive home was a foggy one that included many Cheez-its, Pretzels, Bugles, Kit kats, York patties, Oatmeal cookies, Butterfingers, and CapriSuns. A stop at Lucas’s sisters house in Yuma was very delightful. At which we were fed Hawaiian haystacks and cheese cake. And she sent us on our merry way with bellies full and smiling faces. Three hours later and we were home. Our bonding time and memories will never be forgotten. It was without a doubt an out of this world road trip.
