Hello Freyday!!! This past week Eric and I have been in San Diego taking care of his medical appointments at Balboa – and had the opportunity to spend half of Tuesday celebrating Eric’s birthday!! Being the Naval guy he is, I rented us a sailboat for a few hours thinking we’d have a nice leisurely sail around Mission Bay. Little did I know that 1) A 14 foot sailboat is actually incredibly small and 2) It takes both of us to work it — that magazine I brought on board? not happening. Oh, and 3) Sailing takes some skill and communication Let’s just say that our first 15min. would have embarrassed me if we were being filmed for Amazing Race. You kind of have to know what’s going on and be in sync with your Captain (in this case, Eric – and I was the 1st mate). Who knew what a jib was or how I needed to swing it to ‘turn it about’?!?! And if you don’t do those things, you almost tip over. I’m pretty sure we entertained the people on the shore for a good 15min. until we got our groove back and worked together as a team 🙂 Definitely recommended for a marital team-building exercise for sure!!
We were blessed though with a beautiful 75 degree, sunny day with 12 mph winds that made it an adventure for us as we soaked in some sun, worked together to sail around the bay and wished Eric a happy birthday! Highly recommend it if you’re ever in the San Diego area for sure! So enjoy a few shots I got in between ‘working’ 🙂
I’m off to Walnut Creek (northern California) for Trevor and Jessica’s wedding and I couldn’t be more excited for their big day!!!
