We went on Carnival and we were pleasantly surprised. The ship was really nice and not run down like we expected.
There were no balconies but we all got an ocean view room so it wasn't too bad.
We had such fun together.
We had a big long table for dinner and we switched around where we sat every night to just mix things up.
We stopped at Encinada. We had Domingo get us a smoking deal on a tour bus and we all went together to the blow hole. Mendis had gotten a recommendation from a guy at work for a tour guide and as luck would have it that's who ended up driving our bus and giving us the tour.
We made a stop on the way to get some water and treats at a gas station and posed.
Then he took us to a great taco stand for some amazing tacos.
After our lunch we had to walk to the blowhole through all these street vendors. Not our favorite thing but not too too bad.
The blow hole was surprisingly fun. It shot up really high in the air and we enjoyed watching it.After the blowhole we headed back through the vendors but with "Chad" Domingo with us it was a breeze. Mendis picked up a sweet deal on a wallet thanks to him. It was fun to watch him in action.
We had such a great time we were all sad when it was over. We didn't realize at the time we had an hour long extravaganza to get out of the parking garage ahead of us. What a pain.
Mendis and I decided to do something different and went home down Route 66 instead of going up the El Cahon pass. It was fun to do something different even though it cost us alot of time. We just didn't want our little trip to be over. It was so fun to find the other wigwam motel in Rancho Cucamonga.
