Anyway.
I had asked Danny to save Saturday for the wifey (that's me), 'cause I had a little something fun up my sleeve. I'm pretty sure he didn't think it would involve physical activity...but he should know me better than that by now!
I dressed him in his fanciest workout attire in a (failed) attempt to throw him off the scent and packed our bags for the beach. It was so beautiful out that I wasn't even surprised that he seemed excited and not angry when I told him my "surprise" was a long hike.
We took in amaze views and burned a few calories along the way, plus we got to be "in nature" (hey- there are Beware of Rattlesnake signs and trees). Make fun if me if you want, but you know that expression "I'm outdoorsy in that I like drinking on patios" ? Well I fall neatly into that category. We're not in Kansas anymore, Toto!
Look! I got a real smile out of this sweaty guy. He even looks...happy.
We went on for a couple of hours, and once we were good and sweaty and sunburned (and starving) we climbed back into the car and drove up PCH to the Reel Inn for lunch. The food isn't anything to write home about, but it's bright, cheerful and a Malibu staple - the perfect place to go when you're covered from head to toe in hiking dust.
My stomach was growling just thinking about grilled fish tacos.
Ordering...waiting...
Mmmmm...happy girl (and boy). We polished off our food and spent the rest of the day laying in the sun (protected, duh) on our favorite beach.
And now I'm home, showered, and ready for a catnap. :)
Hope your weekends were wonderful. XO M
