California days 3 & 4

Next stop Escondido to pick up Grandma Barbara and head off toward our hotel 
across the street from the beach in Carlsbad.  
We had such a nice time walking along the boardwalk and playing in the ocean in San Diego.
 It was such a treat to eat REAL Mexican food. Mmmm!
The next day the kids were dying to get into the water! Paul was such a hit when he surprised them with these boogie boards! They were overjoyed! 
RIGHT after breakfast we walked to the beach. 
and the kids had a great time boogie boarding. 
We loved walking and sitting on the beach and enjoying the beautiful views
That afternoon we made our way back to San Diego to take a stroll in Balboa Park. They had cute little shops, neat buildings and beautiful grounds to explore.

Those trees are so cool! I love the one you put as a header for your blog. Alyssa looks like a mermaid where she's covered in the sand!
