Justin took me on a surprise trip to Catalina Island for our 10th anniversary.
This was the first time we went away with no kids since having kids.
And it was nice.
Really nice.
Highlight of the trip was hands down the zip line.
We also loved our cheesy/touristy/fun Skyline Tour to the "airport in the sky."
The guide had enough puns to last Grandpa Lunt a lifetime.
This part of the island was so different than the main touristy part.
And it included some bison sightings.
Justin enjoyed many cups of hot chocolate.
Also loved the casino.
It includes a theatre where we saw Megamind.
It also has the world's largest circular ballroom.
Our hotel was cute.
Loved the courtyard.
I like that locals are allowed to own 1 golf cart.
Only a certain number of full-size vehicles are allowed on the island.
They say there's a 15 year waiting list to get one.

We went to a little Veteran's Day ceremony.
Oh and conveniently got out of the Marine Corps Ball.
Had noooo desire to go after last year.
Very last thing before going home...the Wrigley Memorial Gardens.
This memorial was really cool but the gardens were full of cacti.
The only flower I saw was on a prickly pear.
Not what I was hoping for.
But I loved these 3 days so much.
Thank you Bethany (Justin's sister) for watching our kids!
She did a ton and was so positive every time we talked.
Justin arranged for her to fly in from AZ the night before we left.
It was all the best surprise.
Thank you Justin!!!
Happy Anniversary!
