Janina, Malin, Santa Monica, San Diego and Tattoos!

So here we have some updates on what we've been up to the last week! We have traveled for some days, and it's been a lot of fun! Janina, our friend from Norway has been visiting us this week, and we've done a lot of cool stuff together! Last Friday we went up to Santa Monica and Venice Beach and spent almost the whole day there. Always a lot of fun stuff to watch there!

Janina made a friend!

Day 2 - Balboa

Hi everyone! I'm just setting the mood for this blog post with Katy Perry's California Gurls. You can choose if you want to watch the video or if you just wanna use it as background music while reading. The reason for me posting it is that we heard it on the radio while driving yesterday, and it's been stuck on my mind ever since.

So yesterday we went to Newport Beach. First stop was the Balboa Fun Zone where we tested the Ferris wheel. You can read about a previous trip to the Balboa Ferris wheel here. And a Norwegian version of this post can be found here. 

On their way around the wheel.

Sunset Beach And Other Weekend Activities

This weekend has been really nice! We started out with a relaxing movie night on Friday, and saw among other things the first episode ot Sherlock. We both liked it a lot, so now we're hooked on that show too, I'm afraid. I don't suppose we'll ever run out of series to watch. Before watching Sherlock we finished the last episode of Downton Abbey. We can hardly wait for season 3 to come! We love it!

By the way, if you want to read this blog post in Norwegian, you can do that here. 

Saturday morning we went jogging and did a couple of strengthening exercises afterwards. And patted ourselves on the shoulder of course. Then we went to Sunset Beach. Some of you might remember Aaron Spelling's flop of a TV show bearing the same name? Ok, so this is where that series supposedly took place! It's a beautiful beach surrounded by nice houses. We enjoyed the sun and waited for the sunset. As California residents (read: tourists) we are of course "collecting" beaches.  They lie at the coast like pearls on a string! We want to see all of them.

Karl Yngve in front of the nice houses. I think we would have enjoyed living there, to be honest!



Me greeting the sun!
