Jacqueline and David K. finally came to visit David W. and me this weekend. Why do weekends always seem so short? They stayed from Thursday night till this morning but it flew by so fast. On friday we got to go bike riding around Newport Beach and Lido Island. BTW, Lido island sucks for bike riding. It's very residential and you can't even ride along the pier. The highlight of Lido was spotting a teensy weensy old house (can't be more than 2000 sq. ft) on sale for 2.65 million! I guess the convenient beach access and the status that goes along with owning a house there is worth it for the rich. Then, we went to Boiling Crab in Garden Grove to taste some yummy oysters, crawfish, shrimp, blue crabs, and corn. This was David K's first but for the rest of us, Boiling Crab is definitely on our list of favorite restaurants to eat. I'll post pics in my photo album once I get around to it. There's no place like it and we all left content. Only probably was that day, they didn't have the dungeonous crab, one of my all time favorites there. I guess I'll have to make another trip someday. To top off the night, we spent a couple hours at Morongo Casino. Needless to say, I didn't win but oh well, at least I learned the basic rules of Craps and received some helpful hints on Black Jack.
On Saturday, we did everything from going shopping at Palms Spring Cabazon Outlet, riding the Palms Spring Ariel Tramway, hiking on the mountain top, eating at Nara sushi restaurant in Chino Hills, to bowling at Arrowhead bowling alley in San Berardino. The weather on sat turned out perfect. On the mountain top where we hiked, it was 65F so it was nice and cool. We got some awesome photos up there...way too hilarious. At the sushi restaurant, we tried out this blue fin tuna nigiri that was $9.95/2 pieces. Although it melted in your mouth, I'm not sure if it's worth the price. At the bowling alley, I once again showed off my lack of talent bowling skills. My scores ranged from 65 to 85's. :( Hey, at least I didn't score <50 (that unfortunately happens quite frequently). Jacqueline and David W (my david) both did well but David K (Jacqueline's david) was the star of the night with a score of 162, his personal best.
See what I mean? I did all of this in a mere two days but it flew by so so fast... I had to send Jacqueline and David K off this morning. :( now I'm sitting in front of my desk trying to read an ariticle for tomorrow's rotation but this article never seems to end.......... I guess I better get back to it.
