San Diego Trip #2

July 30th, 2015

A picture before leaving to San Diego

We had to drive down to San Diego after our last trip in May for Uncle's Funeral this past weekend. We only saw him last May, but now he is not here anymore. His funeral was held from Saturday to Monday and the burial was on Monday afternoon. We weren't able to stay until the end of the burial since we had to drive back home to try avoiding traffic. Besides staying at the funeral home, Aunty's house, or sleeping at the hotel, we also made a trip to Coronado Beach on Saturday.

Houa didn't want to drive much so I did most of the driving... even though she complains that I drive like an old lady! LOL JeeVee also says that I drive too slow so he would always have to wait for me. But, hey! It's not my fault that the car won't go any faster. I also didn't want to get stranded with flat tires again. Also, Dad told me to go 70-75 MPH and I was going 80 MPH to catch up to you guys! It was the car, not me.... okay! But overall, it was a fun and sad trip. Thanks for reading~

Acting like she can read Hmong and Mom was laughing at the side at Sabrina's actions.

Trying to take a picture to remember where our car was since we parked far away from the beach

This was a house near the beach. They are so trusting to leave their child's playthings out in the front lawn.


Pretty houses!




She didn't want to take a picture with me...

...and so she yelled at me lol






Looks like she was trying to maker herself a mermaid

After getting refreshed from the beach, heading off the funeral home once again





The following day, I became very irritated from lack of sleep, Anna and Houa making remarks back and forth, and then our hotel room just had to not work! So, Houa bought me Starbucks to "calm me down" and "stop me from being a grumpy person" lol Thanks!

I also had to start on my Japanese homework and send it in! I started to finished it after they finally opened our room and switched us to a room four doors down since the door will not open with the card anymore.

It's a DRAGON!!! Parking down the street and around the corner from the funeral home. This house was at the corner where we parked.

At the cemetery where Uncle will be put to rest

His grave is near the entrance
