Spring Break: Day one.

Today was the day that we finally set out to Coronado Island. The whole family has been waiting for this day and now was the time. We set out on the journey and prepared

Ready to go

for a long ride and we had never had a smoother morning... and then 20 minutes in we realized that my brother Collin had forgotten his Ipad. So we went back and then set out again.

 Everybody could not wait to get there. Even the dog Beauregard (who got to ride up with my brother and I for more space) was excited. Our first stop, about three hours in, was the unbelievably amazing Texaco.
 Yep, we stop at this Texaco every time we go to California

World famous Texaco.

 and I think that I have gotten to know it well.

True story, my mom tried to convince us to go through a road in Yuma instead in order to save some time, but I knew that this way was sacred. And that is why we went back this way again. Anyways, that is just barely on the Arizona side of the border and then about ten minutes later you cross the river.

 Then you ride through most of California and then stop at a Circle K. Lets just say that their bathrooms are messy. This time they had some entertainment though, because this one guy who was flipping a sign for a realty company was singing songs on the corner of the road!

 And finally, we come into Coronado. Straight over the tall bridge and into the little city, driving straight down Orange Avenue. At last we had arrived, and we were going to make this a great trip.

 So thanks for reading and tune in EVERY DAY THIS WEEK on TBB! If you would like to see more pictures of today or other days to come, please leave a comment. I would be happy to send more pictures to you so that you can really know what it is like here! (Click here to read Day 2).
