In other words, the blond-San Francisco part of our suite. Stephanie’s dad drove us up to Lauren’s apartment in LA, where we met her dad, packed up her apartment, met her, and then drove up to her house in San Francisco for the night. The California Adventure continues!
Lauren driving (unhappily) up to San Fran!
We open the freezer and we see this… Yep, definitely Lauren’s apartment (it was also delicious by the way)
Steph desperately trying to get the detailing off of Lauren’s wall, while I pack up some of her other things. We all underestimate how much stuff we accumulate whenever we settle somewhere… I know the packing to go to California (and the repacking at the airport) just reminded me how much JUNK I carry with me everywhere and that I could definitely minimize the stuff in my life. Although, let’s be real, I like clothes. And jewelry. And shoes–I love shoes.
I am FINALLY reunited with In-N-Out! It has been over a year since I have made it to California to taste the classic good-food-fast joint, which serves only fresh food, all cut and cooked in the location. The burgers are amazing, but the fries with their “animal” sauce and the milkshakes are incredible… I literally dream about this place when I’m on the East Coast (Shake Shack cannot compare).
So begins the loooong drive up to San Francisco. It took us a little while pack up, so it was a long drive in the dark.
