Cousin Brian's Visit

When family members live about 8 states away, it's easy to lose touch. This weekend my cousin Brian was in San Diego for work and was lucky enough to have Saturday afternoon off, so Aunt Carol and I played tour guide to him and his supervisor. It had been 8 years since we last saw him!

He definitely takes after his Dad - after being on the phone for about 20 seconds with him (trying to schedule a time to meet up) he had already started in on the jabs and good-natured ribbing that definitely goes with the Miklavic family. Ahhh...yes...funny how that makes it seem as if no time has passed at all since our last visit with him!

We had a great time taking him around to the different sites in SD - too bad the weather didn't cooperate. Here we are at Cabrillo National Monument.
Then we headed to Coronado and walked around the Hotel del...enjoyed the shops and made a game of guessing the prices of all the outrageously expensive items. We also enjoyed some ice cream and people watching...I think we saw about 5 weddings going on!

Before heading home, Brian and his supervisor decided they needed to test the water temperature of the Pacific...


Apparently it was a bit COLD!! Bwahahaha!! (Notice Carol and I are not near the water...) Loved having you here for a visit Brian!! Hope to see you again before another 8 years passes! XOXO
