Spring Break!

So my Spring Break was awesome! Myself and two friends hopped in a car and started driving West. We drove to Las Vegas, went to the Hoover Dam then headed even further West to California. A friend of mine that graduated Coe last year is now a graduate student at the University of California Irvine, so we stopped and saw him and visited Laguna, Newport, L.A., Hollywood, Santa Monica and Venice Beach. Then we drove up to San Francisco and made it back home... what a week!
On the left is Brian, my traveling buddy, the middle is Ryan, my friend at UCI and myself on the left. This is us standing on Laguna Beach, yes that's where the T.V. show is filmed.

This is me in Las Vegas. We took a break from visiting all the casinos, shows and buffets to stop in the M&M store where we watched a 3D movie and I bought a pair of green shutter shades!
This is Caitlin enjoying the Pacific with the sun setting on Laguna Beach.
Our first quarter in a slot machine in Las Vegas! We didn't gamble too much, just walked around and saw all the casinos. I did win about $40 playing blackjack though!
The view we enjoyed for over 4000 miles. The trusty Garmin got us everywhere we needed to be. This view is in Arizona. The drive was almost as fun as the destination, as we got to see some beautiful countryside through the rockies, the desert and the Pacific coast.
