- 65 degree room with queen....err, double beds
- Running lost - calling Jen - maybe not the one to aid in this sitch
- "Hooters" Italian restaurant except it's for the ladies
- Extremely loud gastropub with meh fish and chips (no beating Red Robin at this point, methinks)
- Uber driver chastening my decision to drink Red Bull
- Newport donut lunch with pigeons eating fries under our table
- Red Vines and more Red Vines - the short, thick ones please
- The Mule starring LaMar
- Watching a weird episode of Barry in a weird way
- Airport moving sidewalks with Jen laughing - thinking she was pretty funny
- Colton with two elbows on one arm
- Colton going on his own with TSA precheck - Gray staying with me, like a peasant. On the way back "why are you here in this line?" LGB airport (took a picture, Landon's initials!)
- Squished, three in the back of an Uber
- Colton gets his own room
- Gray's RedBull runs at the nearby gas station
- Hotel breakfast - cute little circle waffles
- $8 Dibs
- Watched "The Lizzie Bennet Diaries" on Youtube during drives
- Watched Creed on the flight there - thought I had Creed II for the flight back but it wasn't downloaded. Had a backup movie "We Have a Ghost"
- Getting some Pogo in ... missing out on the little Koala
- Family History "find relative nearby" activity between games
- Catching a ride with Carter's family ... Carter's mom squishing into the back for the final ride back to the hotel (with the two sweaty boys)
- Kahner (tallest player) almost hitting the ceiling at the hotel ... and sitting next to Colton on the flight home. Definite space issues for that size!
- Not so great fish and chips (twice) ... Red Robin still a favorite
- Gray zooming through the airport ... would he notice if we were no longer following him?
Friday - We landed in California in the evening and had a pretty cramped Uber ride over to the hotel. Really just dropped off our stuff in our rooms then headed back out to get some food. Went to this Italian restaurant. Nothing really happened for the rest of the night, just chilled at the hotel for a bit, before going to sleep.
Saturday - Don’t remember exactly what time I woke up, but I quickly headed down to breakfast and met up with Vaughn for just a bit. He told me about how he had a distant grandma with my same last name and was just wondering if I maybe had a family tree to look at and see if there was any connection. After breakfast, we headed to the beach for like an hour, just walking around and eventually grabbed some donuts to eat. After we got back, a few of the other boys were waiting in the lobby for their rooms to be ready, so I just had them come up and chill with me for a couple hours until they got their room keys. After that, we had the first games of the weekend, losing the first game and winning the second. I was pretty exhausted after the games, just took a shower and needed some food, so I headed to the Carl’s Jr. next to the hotel with Cai and Dawson. Got some snacks from the gas station to take back to my room after and watched Creed III on Amazon once I got back. That was all for the night.
Sunday - Not too much happened for the trip on Sunday as our games all wrapped up by 3:00. I headed down to the lobby to grab a quick breakfast then went back up to the room to pack up my stuff. I left my luggage with my parents before I left with the team for the games, since we were leaving for the airport directly after the games. The games went really similar to the day before, losing the first one and winning the second. Did a quick change of clothes back at the hotel before catching an uber to the airport. We ate at a nice little restaurant right by the gate and finally got on the flight back to Salt Lake City.
