And then it was over. California has been amazing! I have enjoyed every bit of this trip and the adventures I was a part of. The food, the culture, the wine, the people- everything was unforgettable! Before heading for the airport, we stopped off at Santa Monica Pier! Finally making it to the beach, I was a happy girl!
