My husband Chris planned a trip for us to go to San Diego for our 5th anniversary this past weekend! It was a wonderful weekend. We enjoyed eating at several yummy restaurants.
Gaetano's Italian Restaurant was a place we randomly found while stopping in Alpine, CA to miss rush hour traffic. It was a yummy place and we enjoyed a pizza with pepperoni and shrimp on it! Then we got to our hotel room and hung out with our friends Katie and Jeremy who came along with us. Chris got a dozen red roses for our hotel room, it was very sweet and romantic of him! Our hotel room was very nice and it out looked the golf course. It had a nice patio where I spent some of my time reading. There were a lot of bird of paradise around the patio so I had many hummingbirds come to visit. Oh, and our hotel room was 311, which is our anniversary date! March 11th!
The first morning I went to check out the place while the guys were out golfing. I got a mocha from their Starbucks coffee stand and checked out the spa, pool area, dinning area, and tennis courts. It was a really nice place and hope we will get to go there again in the near future. Later in the evening we all went out to get appetizers and drinks at En Fuego and then enjoyed a yummy italian dinner at Il Fornaio. Then we had a fun time going to the heated pool and Jacuzzi when we got back to the hotel.
Sunday I got up early to go to the spa to enjoy a wonderful massage and facial! They were wonderful and I felt like mush afterward. Katie and I then hung out by the pool after we had a yummy breakfast. I took an hour and a half long nap after that..I was totally relaxed from the spa. That evening we went to Jake’s Del Mar a popular fish and California cuisine restaurant for dinner. The tomato soup I had was to die for and I had a great seafood pot for dinner. Everyone had something great to eat, we couldn’t complain. To end our evening we hung out by the fire pit and enjoyed a drink and each others company.
To conclude our trip we took a drive to Pacific Beach and had breakfast. Chris and I then got smoothies to enjoy while walking down the boardwalk and the pier. It was fun watching the surfers and we were amazed at how busy the beach was for a Monday. It was a wonderful weekend and I’m very grateful to be married to such a great guy. Looking forward to many more wonderful years together!
