Road Trip!!

Well, this is a tad late in sharing, but I thought I'd do it anyway since these are the pictures I've taken since my last post. We finally made it to D.C.!! After 4 days on the road with stops in Albuquerque and Nashville, the journey has come to an end. The drive was beautiful (and hot!!) but I enjoyed the beauty of the landscape and giving the Prius a spin. 2779 miles people! Whew! Anyway, here's some photos to sum it all up...

My life. Packed and ready to be loaded into the car.

A developing tornado (between the electric posts, kinda have to squint to make out...) that we chased and barely avoided.

Best Starbucks double soy vanilla latte I have had in Amarillo, Tx.

Welcome!! - a recap of my summer so far

Since June 5th, my last day at work, my weekdays and ends have been packed with activities savoring my last few weeks of educational freedom. Sure I am going to enjoy medical school once I begin, but for now, I will enjoy the bliss of waking up past 10am on a weekday and worrying about whether I should have fresh berries and oatmeal or egg and toast for breakfast. It's great. Here is a hugely shortened version (in photographs!) of my summer so far.

Hiking in Temescual Canyon, Malibu on Father's Day

Hiking in Newbury Park with Tita Jiffy, Shin-yi, Portia, Osang, and my dad.

Post-Newbury Park hiking beverage stop..a local Malibu winery

Adele @ Hollywood Bowl (we watched Aretha Franklin perform that same weekend...equally amazing!)
