Winner's Circle

My event for work, the Winner's Circle, went wonderfully! It was an incredible four days of luxury at this six-star property that is only three months old. Our customers had a great time, my general manager was thrilled, and Mike and I managed to have some down time somewhere in there, too. What a relief for it to have gone so well and to be done with it for a year!!

Here are a few highlights from the trip:

We took a boat trip for dolphin/whale watching.

We managed to see several sea lions.

And really cool clouds.

And some beautiful boats. And just as we were headed back with no dolphin or whales in sight, the captain heard dolphin on his hydrophone! So we headed that way.

They were incredible! We saw probably 25 or 30 of them. They just swam with the boat over and over. Some of them even performed for us.

This boat is the only one in the world with an underwater viewing area. It was tiny, just big enough for two of us, but we were swimming along side the dolphin under water! I absolutely LOVE dolphin (thus our perfect engagement), and this underwater viewing area was too much!

The sunset on the second evening was unbelievable. Here it is, overlooking Catalina Island.

The Californian sunset with my gorgeous husband and my ever-expanding belly.
