.................................................................................................................................................................................
Having been a perpetual student for nearly half of my life, I am still
a nerd at heart. I love visiting college campuses and what better place
to take a toddler than a college campus!? There are no cars to worry
about, there are tons of room to run, and there are lots of grassy areas
to play on. If you go on a weekend, there are very few people around
so you practically have the whole place to roam around. We happened
to be in the Westwood area so we took Baby to UCLA for some play time last
weekend.
We went to my favorite pastry shop in Westwood, Elysee, to pick up
some tiramisu for a little picnic by Janss Steps. It was a slightly chilly day, but still
nice.
Baby had a fine time hopping and skipping at various places on campus.
He recently learned how to walk and is eager to go places, independently!
I hope to continue to bring Baby to visit college campuses. So
far, he's been to UCLA, USC, Standford, and UC Irvine. No matter what
path Baby chooses in life, we will encourge him to attend college. It
is the doorway to the rest of the world.

Last month, we had some amazing weather so we took Baby out for a nice
stroller ride along the PV Loop Trail. This is not a long nor difficult
trail. It's all paved and it goes along the ocean so the view is
spectacular. The trail will also lead you to the Palos Verdes lighthouse.
The only dangerous part is the warning of rattle snakes. However,
there are so many people walking around that I was pretty sure we were not
going to have a rattle snake encounter. But, we did have a rare encounter
with another creature on our hike. We saw a whale off the coast!!
There was a whale watching boat following closely. I even managed
to catch the whale spouting water on camera!! It was Baby's very first
whale sighting, but he didn't seem to be very impressed by it.
We all had a wonderful time and hope to go back to this trail soon, especially
now that Baby can walk. For now, enjoy my pictures from the hike.
We're expecting some more nice weather this weekend so I'm super excited.
We've got some fun things to do with our friend El Dwag. Happy
Friday!
