What a weekend

This was a long weekend in the US... Monday was Martin Luther King day. Work and day care were closed so we decided to make a weekend of it. We booked a room on Saturday night at La Costa Spa and Resort. We got the idea from a friend who shared that he booked a room for Saturday night, but took his family up early Sat and left late Sunday enjoying all the facilities.

What a great idea that was! Because it is winter, prices were 50% reduced! But the weather was like summer... it was 75-80F. The place has so much to offer, a major golf course (not for us)... a great spa, an amazing Yoga center (the Chopra Center), and an amazing setup for kids including water slides, pools with integrated beaches and a whole play area for kids. Fredrica and I both booked massages which were amazing and Fredrica got a yoga class in Sunday morning.


Isabella was fearless... she loves the water. To the right was a small beach and Isabella loved playing in the beach sand and running into the pool

Mainly just something fun to look at outside "Kids-topia" a whole entertainment center for kids (Isabella was a little young). No parents allowed... just kids (I guess so parents can golf, go to the spa, etc.)

Here is the spa... boy were we pampered

On our way back we stopped at a park and someone had a huge parakeet

Isabella was just fascinated

Isabella loves seesaws.

Weee!

Daddy braved up the rock face... OK it was only 2 meters high :-)
