Summer Trip III





After finally hitting the first noteworthy milestone in my life, my high-school graduation, I decided that commencing a Summer 2011 "bucket list"(if you will) was completely necessary. As a graduation present, a friend of mine took me to Disneyland. It was rather nostalgic to say the least. 6 Flags, Magic Mountain my second adventure; it was hot and humid, definitely not a pleasant combination. The stirling silver jewelry on my fingers (and toe!) were completely unmovable because of the swollenness caused by the sun. Despite all of that, it was a lovely day spent with people that I love.
Onto my most recent trip... My best friend's family and I traveled up north to San Marino for the stunning Huntington. Their amazing Library, Art Collections, and beautiful botanical gardens are to die for. We spend a good 4 hours walking through all of the attractions. The art collection was so diverse, and so beautiful. From the 17th century marble sculptures (which had such impeccable detail of the time) to the modern pop art of Andy Warhol. The museum also carried original sketches from philosophers like Aristotle to Isaac Newton. Amazing! All in all, the trip was fantastic and I plan on going their again.
