YOU GOTTA REGATTA

Today is our yacht club's annual Opening Day regatta, and the whole family 

is battening down the hatches for a day on the water.  See you on the finish line!

ALL QUIET ON THE WESTERN FRONT

ONE + TWO

Sorry for the lack of posting, but exciting things have been happening IRL, dudes!

Here's the biggest news: my parents came to Europe!  

After being in a foreign country with so many strange things and experiences for so long, it was beyond nice to see them.  I showed them around Barcelona for a few days, and then we jetted off to Paris together.  Let me tell you - after traveling as a poor college student, taking the cheapest flights and staying in hostels and packing all my belongings for a weekend in just a backpack, it was so. incredibly. nice to travel with my parents.  I'm talking nice hotel, fancy dinners, taking actual taxi cabs as opposed to public transportation - the works!  I just got back today, and it's definitely going to be a shock to reenter the real world.  Class today was brutal enough.  

Anyway, look for a post on Paris to come!

THOUGHT FOR THE DAY

I'm posting this from my bed in my room at home in California!  After spending all day yesterday traveling across the country (including a 6 am flight out of Virginia - ouch) it's so nice to be back home and with my family for the week of Thanksgiving.
