Dave & Meredith's Travel Blog

We stayed two nights with my cousin Pam in Laguna Niguel, CA, but we forgot to take a picture from our window.

We do have a picture of me and Pam on the beach though:

Happy cousins

We had a wonderful time with Pam and the family she lives with (a mom and dad, two adorable boys and two miniature pinschers).  Mostly, we chilled out, replenished some camping supplies and groceries, took advantage of the shower and washer and dryer, and got some quality time with my cousin.  We also went to a really nice wine tasting at a local wine shop – I highly recommend it if you’re in the area – it’s called From the Vine Wine Boutique.  It’s run by a mother and daughter team and they hold three tastings a week.

By the way, Pam is such a sweetheart, but I’m convinced she’s ruining things for the rest of the folks in my family on our "tier", because she does such a tremendous job of keeping in touch with everyone one and two tiers up in the hierarchy.  So, I’ll just give a shout out to aunts, uncles and grandmas right now.  Hi and I love you all!  🙂
