There were many highlights to our trip, but one that surpasses them all was my reunion with my dear sweet friend Ela. This whole blog started when I was living in England and I long to be able to blog once again about my British encounters...Someday I will return. Some of my most treasured friendships began on British soil...friendships that speak to my soul from thousands of miles away. When I left England I left knowing that I would once again see the sweet faces I grew to love. So far Skype is the only way I get to see these beautiful women, however I was blessed with a real life reunion while we were in San Diego.
Ela was supposed to fly to IL when Micah and I got married, but illness hindered her from making the trip...such a bummer, but there was no illness this time around. Ela and her now fiance made the trip to CA for their own pleasure and shortly after planning we realized that our trips overlapped. PERFECTION (As if I needed another reason to make the trip perfect)
We ate at our FAVORITE restaurant in San Diego, Miguels. If anyone plans on visiting San Diego this is a MUST TASTE. Coronado Island holds the finest Mexican food and Italian Gelato. Both of which were enjoyed with my beautiful Ela, her fiance Jon, Mallory and Billy.
Since we also enjoyed a day at SeaWorld together. It was a gorgeous day for a stroll with the whales...

Thriller...definite entertainment

The Whales never get old...I could watch them all day long every day :o)
Why can't you live in the same country as me? I need more friends like you ;o)
Sweet reunion....with a sweet friend who knows my heart without saying a word. It is such a joy to be able to talk to someone who 'gets' you. Thank you Ela for your friendship. For your unconditional love...and for all the memories on British and US soil. I cannot wait for our next reunion on British soil.
