La Jolla Cove

With the beautiful sights and sounds of San Diego, California. From the amazingly amusing Hertz bus driver to the sand filled beach. Today was full of stress free and fun filled events. I remember La Jolla, CA like it was two years ago. The great experience I got to endure and the fun people I got to hang out with makes one of the most depressing weekends in American history a very upside down and backwards look on 9/11. Every year for the past 79 years the community of La Jolla holds an annual rough water swim in La Jolla Cove. This happens to be my second year attending this annual swim.

Rushing out of school collecting all of my papers and homework makes me in a terrible person to be around. We start off the vacation with a wonderful chocolate chip pancake. Joining us on this trip are our good family friends and swimming partners, The O'Neals. With there happy go lucky attitude they are great supporters during this time that I am most stressed out about the race. After mother yells at the rental car origination for the lack of organizing to complete our rental reservation we drive off the lot in a dark blue Chevy... I don't know it is a very small car.

After a nice lunch and some TV we meet up with the O'Neals at the cove, swimming suits ready to go. The cold and vast Pacific Ocean is a wide wonderland of freedom. Perception of a good day. Underneath us is a school of silver, black and orange fish swimming calmly in the cove. From family friendly to whats might be dangerous and scary Pacific waters. The thundering cry of the waves hitting the rocks on the sore of the beach, makes me feel like I''m on Mars compared to Colorado.

Finally, La Jolla.
