Before Sunrise

(Intense) sunshine, (best of) friends, (faraway) family, (delicious) food and (bottomless) alcohol. Ingredients to a perfect vacay.

Then dessert and drinks at…OzumoHappy blessed birthday…

California Adventures

For the past few weeks, I’ve been on a vacation from paradise.  I left Hawaii and woke up on the east coast for “work” then enjoyed an extended layover in California.
