Laura's Bday

We went to Catalina again, this time for Laura's bday on Sept 6.

Yay birthday!

Laura's delicious omelette and hash browns breakfast.

Troy's meat heavy omelette and hash browns.

We went mini-golfing:

Finding her center.

Laura's score = 81, Troy's score = Tennis, anyone? (101)

Then we went parasailing! One guy drove the boat, the other took pictures of us up in the air.

Afterwards, we went rock climbing. Well, Laura went rock climbing. It was empty when we got there - just us and the guy with the equipment. And since only I (Laura) was climbing, all attention was on me as I ascended the wall... It was weird. The guy offered another climb when I reached the top, but it was too weird for me to go up again with nothing for them to do except watch me. Plus, my weak twig arms were about to give out.

Next we headed to the beach for some kayaking (no pictures as we kept the camera safe and dry on land). Troy discovered he enjoys kayaking. Win! Then we grabbed some lunch, and caught the boat back to Long Beach. We had to cut the day short as Laura had a Continuing Music Therapy Education (CMTE) workshop to attend in Orange County that evening.

Laura does love her veggie sandwiches.

And Troy loves his bacon burgers.

Still, we were able to pack in a fantastic day full of birthday discounts for the birthday girl. Laura went around exclaiming, "It's my birthday!" at every business we gave our money to, whether or not a discount was available for her birthday. Yay birthdays!
