You can always make money....you can't always make memories....

 No- you are not seeing double again!

We are at the Harry Potter World

in California. Last minute decision

since we were there for Nick's 10th

birthday and it wasn't RAINING...

Let the fun begin!

 Such cute girls- who could resist :)

Singing toads with Hailey...

Donna found Lucille~

Just Whoa...

 Apparently sticking a candle in your burrito- brings

much laughter (lol)

 Redondo Pier at sunset

 Bike ride around Venice Beach and Santa Monica

Pier (in the distance)

my dear friend Cindy drove 2 hours

to have lunch with me at my hotel in

Marina Del Rey (thanks)

 Now we jump to my Dad's

84th birthday lunch at the

Cheesecake factory :)

Groundhog Day- Feb. 2nd

(a yummy treat of mango-key lime

cheesecake)

The eating continued into the evening

at Fernandez the Bull (Cuban food) with

another dessert of flan with coconut!

we must stop now- too full to say more-

except...thanks to the calls, texts and

cards from his grandkids. We appreciate

your efforts...
