We’re back!
Thanks to May, who messaged me on Facebook to ask if the blog is down, we realized that Mike hadn’t paid our hosting fees for this blog. Sure enough, when I clicked over here, I got an “oops!” screen. Well, as you can tell, we paid the fee and we’re back.
Mike’s dad (Bruce) and stepmom (Lynda) are here, visiting from KS, and we’ve been taking them around. Friday, when they came in, we went to Old Town for lunch (and for some winetasting at the Hacienda de las Rosas storefront), hung out at home, and then tried Pizzeria Luigi. Yesterday, Valentine’s Day, we treked out to the Wild Animal Park– my first time there, and I’m a native San Diegan!– and then headed to Valley View casino from a few drinks, a little gambling, and A TON of eating at their delicious buffet. The deal there is that the buffet is free when you sign up for the player’s club, and you get a free trip to the buffet during the month of your birthday. Mike had a free trip saved up from when we went in December (for his birthday), and Bruce and Lynda joined the players club. All said, we had to pay $23.99 for the four of us to eat like pigs, and we emerged from the buffet fat and happy. Nothing says romance like feeling like your stomach is going to explode. Today we went to Seaport Village and then to a little sandwich shop for lunch. We’re resting up for the Turf Club tonight. I can hear the Sneaky Tikis calling my name!
