What a weekend!

Been a pretty crazy and very exciting long weekend here! This will be my run down of all the events so that everyone can know how much fun we (Sean and I) had the past two days, and so tht I'll remember it in the future.

Woke up early on Sunday and was lazy for a while, read my book for about an hour its getting pretty good! About noon, we were ready to leave on our first adventure. To San Jose. Not much of an adventure to start with really. Went to San Jose to see Sean's new Panera store near the airport. Looks very nice but not very open yet. After checking out the area a little and playing a round of smash bros at the local GameStop, we headed to the Mall. THE MALL. This is a pretty big mall, doesn't really compare to the Mall of America in Minneapolis but its still very big. Its called the WestField Shopping Valley Fair. and what I found interesting is that it is very carefully layed out and very diverse at the same time. So in one area would be all the kids stores and in another would be all the staker-punk stores and in another would be all the fancy BananaRepublic++ stores. It was a very nice mall and I'm sure if I had any money to spare I could have done some damage.

The best part about this mall is there is a Cheesecake Factory Resturant attached to it. OH MAN. It was so very good. Prices weren't bad especially considering the portion sizes (there are pictures) The burgers were HUGE. Much to much food for me anyways. But we still have to-die-for cheesecake at the end. "Chocolate Peanut Butter Cookie Dough Cheesecake" It was amazing. Yes, I'm going to the gym soon.

After that we went to cupertino, to get Sean schedule and go to Target to get new sheets for the bed. The ones that it came with were horribly uncomfortable and I really didn't know how back until I slept in the new ones and ended up sleeping in till 11. new sheets are jersey knit and great!

Oh and watched the worst movie ever sunday night.

Monday (Today) the plan was to go to the beach (Which has wireless access by the way) but it was just a little to cold. wouldn't have been much fun and a long drive for not much fun. SO instead we went exploring... major adventure. The goal was to go into the mountains. So we headed out of here about 1-ish and headed towards what we thought was a park according to the map but was actually a golf course. Driving in the mountains is crazy! and the little car could barely do it. It was definatly struggling at more than one point. So figured out that it was a Golf Course and picked a new destination... Redwood Park. took a long time to finally get there but it was totally worth it. The redwoods were awesome! and the hike we took was pretty cool. I however was the exact opposite of prepared for a hike since I was wearing a skirt and flipflops. anyways I survived.

headed back to Mountain View and went to Pasta? to have dinner. It was actually very good tho the portions were smaller than I expected. I would go back again however and the service was great. Tonight, planning on playing a little scrabble and going to bed early.
