I just returned from two weeks in Cali.  We decided to be more spontaneous than either of us have been in our lives and planned the trip two days before we left.  Gotta say, I didn't miss the snow (even though there wasn't much here), the cold, or the grey blahness that is winter in CNY.  I loved how sunny and warm and springlike it was in Cali.  I ( Read more... )
