DAY 10: Mass to Cali
(Thursday, June 30, 2011)
Starting City: San Leandro, Ca
Ending City: Bellflower, Ca
I was really sad to leave. I wanted to stay another day, but I had to get back to Southern California to get things squared off with work, license, registration, insurance etc before the long weekend. We started our journey to our final destination at about 9am... I gave Joseph and my sister a BIG hug and gave Joseph a million kisses, or as many as I could get in before he pushed away... I was sad to leave so soon. I had said my good byes to Jason the night before and that morning before he left to work... :) The trip to my parent's house was not that bad... we didn't hit too much traffic, so that was great. We pretty much made it from San Leandro to Bellflower in about 6.5 hours. Before arriving at my parents house I stopped by the DMV to get paper work and ask questions about getting my license and registration and all that good stuff so I could fill out the paperwork and have it ready the next day. When I got home, my mom and dad were happy to see me and we unpacked everything from the car and it looked like a tornado went through my room when I dumped everything in there!!! Aghhh!!! Feels awkward to be back... I feel like a foreigner. :/

Day 9: Mass to Cali
(Wednesday, June 29, 2011)
Starting City: San Leandro, Ca
Ending City: San Leandro, CA
Today was a pretty relaxed day. Rathdara and I ran some errands for my sister while she stayed home and tried to get some rest. We also bought some stuff to make dinner for the family because we knew they were very tired with having to deal with going to the hospital everyday. We bought some chocolate sweets and boba for my sister also because I know how much she likes those stuff. :) Then when we got back to the apartment me spent the rest of the time playing around with joseph so my sister can do whatever she needed to do before heading to the hospital to see Alexander. When we got to the hospital Rathdara and I watched joseph and played with him outside while my sister and Jason were able to tend to Alexander together and speak to the nurses and doctor together without having to worry about watching Joseph. Rathdara and I were glad to help. We went home and Rathdara and I whipped up dinner, everyone ate and then got ready for bed and went to sleep. I again.. KNOCKED OUT!!!

Day 8: Mass to Cali
Starting City: Reno, NV
Ending City: San Leandro, CA
Slept in just a little and then went to Denny''s for breakfast. Headed out towards California and had a long but short 3.5 hour drive. It was long because half the time we were going up and down through the mountains and then the other half it was raining so hard!!! It was pretty darn crazy. Before reaching my sister's place we stopped by a fast food asian restaurant that was pretty bomb to get some food for everyone, delicious! When we got to the apartment Joseph was still taking his nap, but when he woke up it was so cute! He walked out of the room and said he was done taking a nap and that he was awake now. SOOO CUTE!!! :) Joseph was a little shy at first because he saw Rathdara and didn't want to talk or play, but he warmed up pretty quick and we were playing cars, trains, and ball in no time! :) Around 5pm we left to go see Alexander in the hospital (where we met Jason also) and he was so adorable. He was opening his eyes and mouth... too cute! :) Afterwards we went home, everyone was pooped, we ate, got ready for bed and I KNOCKED OUT!

DAY 7: Mass to Cali
Starting City: Laramie, WY
Ending City: Reno, NV
With much needed sleep and playing a game all the way from Laramie to Reno, the drive was not bad at all. I thought the game was going to be a bust, but it worked out very well and is still ongoing. :) We just start with the first letter of the alphabet, A, and try to name as many celebrities with the first name that starts with that letter back and forth until on of us can no longer name anymore. Whoever can name the most will win the point for that letter. We are on Letter "N" and I am beating Rathdara so far, 8 to 5. :) The scenery was a little better today than yesterday, we got to see mountains and hills. For dinner, we ate In n Out Burger!! So bad, yet sooo good! :) Tomorrow is a short drive to my sister's place--- about 3 hours. :) Can't wait to finally see them!

DAY 6: Mass to Cali
Starting City: Blaine, MN
Ending City: Laramie, WY
Not much to say about today. Was very tired, slept when not driving and found it difficult to get through the drive with the endless grass prairies. Hotel we were originally going to stay in was just very creepy with people starring at us and following us so we went to a totally different part of town and stayed at a better place. Hopefully tonight with more rest the trip to Reno will not be as bad. Almost there!!!

DAY 5: Mass to Cali
Starting City: Blaine, MN
Ending city: Blaine, MN
Today was a very productive day. Started the Day off by trying out Caribou Coffee. Went to Como Regional Park/Conservatory/Zoo, Midtown Global Market, and Minnehaha Park. The conservatory and zoo were great, we went with Nary and Navay. I loved all the different plants and animals we saw, I was just a little sad that it was a little under the weather with a slight drizzle throughout our whole visit. we then headed to the midtown global market where we ate middle eastern food--- yummay! We met up with everyone at home and headed out to Minnehaha Park and took some great pictures of the waterfall, crane, nature, mississippi river and just hiked through one of their trails. we ended the night eating steak all together before calling it a day. I sure enjoyed my time in Minnesota and thank everyone here for taking us out and being such great hosts and hostesses.
