Day Train trip to Oceanside

We headed to Oceanside for the day from Fullerton. While waiting for the train, the kids and I remembered the train trip we took with Brian to Santa Barbara. We hear the song on the radio...Phil Collins "against all odds"; then Avery starts to sing "burnin' ring of fire" by Johnny Cash -- I didn't even know she knew that song! Within 5 minutes, a bee lands on Ian... No kidding!
So I guess we are on a blessed trip ;)

So we made it to Oceanside safely. Here's us on the very long pier :)

And this is what we saw... so beautiful!

And the kids wanted to take a picture with this little friend... i thought for sure he would snatch up a cell phone what with all those people getting so close to him to take a picture. Glad it wasn't me!

And we made some new friends on this trip and hung out with them most of the day. We had lunch at Ruby's on the pier and played at the beach for awhile, too. Hopefully we'll get to hang out with them again soon!

After playing at the beach, we met up with some local San Diegans.. our friends who adopted Charlie, remember him?! They came out and went to the CA Surf Museum and had ice cream with us at the local DQ.

What a fun day! And the ride home wasn't stressful at all.
Thanks, God, for the blessings!

By the way, it's the 25th anniversary of the movie "Top Gun," one of my faves as a kid. We got to see the "Top Gun" house... so cool!
