Newport Beach


We spent the week in Newport last week and absolutely loved it. We stayed at the Marriott Resort in Newport, a bit fancy for me, but I survived. Our days were spent at the beach, shopping, eating and just plain relaxing.

I enjoyed the cycling excursions with Kyle, Jim, and the Thomas's. We would work our way around to Laguna Canyon and head down to the PCH, then north back to the resort.

The weather was typically 75 to 80 near the beach. Our A/C went out on the way over and we planned to drive home at night to avoid the heat, that didn't work out because the average temp heading home was 105! No lie, a lot of the trip was at 108. We survived, but that trip home was awful.

The families that were there included: Hatfields, Jorgensens, Thomas's, Wilsons, Connollys, Burks, Matthews, and others not well-known to me.

Good stuff
