We began with a stop at Anthropologie. I camera shopped. You know, when you don't have the $$$ to shop so you take pics instead. It is not quite as fulfilling, but it keeps me from impulse shopping.
"I want that."
Click.
"Oh, I Loovvveee that!"
Click.
Problem solved. Hubby still loves me when I come home.
Red or Aqua...hmmm? Hard decision.
We had a view of the pool and bay. Across from the bay is beautiful Coronado Island. It is not really an Island, but who's keeping track of accuracy?
And even though I went to college in San Diego, I still feel the need to take pics of famous signs and architecture that makes me feel like I'm on a movie set. You just don't see brick buildings with bay windows and fire escapes in Southern Cali suburbia.

I hope that if you don't already make it a priority to get away for a girls' night/weekend, that you find a chance to do it soon. It is good for the soul. And for the belly because I know all that laughing is equivalent to 1,000 crunches.
Much love,
Katie

So much I'm loving in this post!
Looks like a great getaway! I am in dire need of a girls getaway. Been planning it for 6 years now... going to happen soon! I can feel it :)
You are SOOOO right! Girls get-aways are good for the soul! My "mama group" does an overnight two times a year, but then a few hours away once a month, so much fun! And camera shopping...what a great idea!
girls getaway weekends are the BEST.
especially ones that start off at anthro. or go to anthro at all.
and i LOVE the camera shopping idea.
i am SO using that when i go to europe.
it will be WAY better for my wallet.
and no conversion rate ;)
So much fun. Maybe when G is a tad older I can do a girls get away, miss those trips. Love the vase, and we have the initial mugs, love them! That store is great for ideas!
Looks like a fab trip!! And looks like I need to hit up anthro stat!
Hi Katie!
Your girls weekend sounds fabulous.
I need one of those.
Especially after a week of camping in the dirt!
I'm with you, 3 days max when "dry camping". ;)
what a fun girls weekend!
and i love san diego...just plain love it.
:)
I totally agree with you. My times away with my girlfriends are so relaxing and refreshing- and the laughing... I love it.
I'm new here-camera shopping is a great idea...looks like a fun trip! Love San Diego!
I'm a camera shopper too, especially in stores like Anthropologie! Thanks for stopping by :-)
looks like fun! We don't have an Anthropologie store up here, but everyone still talks about it! Such cute color combos for kitchen stuff.
Ahhh Anthro,how dreamy art thou? I am popping in there today. No purchases. Just a walk thru like a museum. I love that timer. Oh my. That stack of mags, good times!
so true about the laughing!!!
Ahhh! I love San Diego & I love seeing my hometown through your beautiful blog! Looks like you had a great trip and I love your choice in hotels ;) Also--- I've been drooling over those measuring cups at Anthro.... ! xo
Camera shopping huh? I need to try that out. I'm pretty sure my husband would be a happy camper too. Glad to hear you had a good time.
So jealous.
And yeah...I wouldn't do well with the camera shopping. Would probably take a bunch of pics and then buy it all online when I got home!
Glad you were able to get way! Looks like so MUCH fun!
Okay...just to show you how BIG of a cornfield I live in...I've NEVER been to Anthro. Would totally LOVE to go sometime!
Red or Aqua? They look so nice together! ;)
Have a GREAT weekend!
