When Worlds Collide

Between having grown up in Riverside, going to school in Santa Barbara, studying abroad in France, living in San Diego and moving to New York City, I have accumulated a lot of different worlds of friends, and they often collide and intermingle. There was a new one to add to the books when Jayna came to visit last weekend. Not that we did much to be social with anyone else, but she at least got to come to southern California for some sunny frivolity.

Let's take a trip down memory lane and all laugh together:

Jayna (white) and me (green) texting each other as I'm picking her up from the airport. Her celebrity comment made me laugh a lot when I got it. It was totally a Jayna comment but was still unexpectedly hil-ar-i-ous to me, so I screenshot it

First things first: RIVERSIDE! Little Miss East-Coast Jayna from Germany has officially been introduced to the wonder of the world that is Riverside's Mission Inn!

Downtown Riverside was SHOCKINGLY fun. The end of our min-pub crawl was here at Proabition

Next daysies: beach! We ended up at Newport in the sun for a few hours

This gull was originally just chillin' abrasively on someone's cooler, but strutted away eventually

We bought a shameless amount of snacks to bring with us




After the beach was Disneyland...
Can you tell we spent all day in the sun before we took off on Matterhorn?

Next day: Hollywood and LA! Here at Grauman's Chinese Theatre




And my first time at LACMA!






That night we went out with the twins in LA, to a bar with a Jenga that Jenga Jayna jealously guarded...









We crashed at the twins' place that night and were up by 6am the next morning (OUCH) for her to catch her flight out of LAX back to Raleigh. It was a suuuuuuuper fast trip, and now we wait for the next time one of us hits a jackpot to reunite again. Except next time she's in Cali, it's going to be alllll relaxin'... beaches, brunches and wine tasting. Party on Garth!
