A bit of a perfect weekend.

Saturday:-
Consisted of the gym, swimming pool and then a really fun trip to Ralphs with Laura and Betty. I just found it really fun. We were chatting around, walking in the glorious sunshine and being total girls. Later that evening, I experienced my first proper Basketball match. It was really fun. The atmosphere was incredible and people were beating down on their chairs, screaming, throwing their hands up and doing the triton sign...meanwhile the band were playing during time outs and half time (a real marching band in blue uniform just like in Taylor Swift's music video 'You Belong To Me'). Everything was just so perfectly well done! We then went back to Andy's place and played on the Wii (I think I have gathered I am way to enthusiastic and jump around when all you really need to do is flick your wrist but hey ho)

Sunday - Andy, Betty, Catalina and I took a trip to La Jolla Cove Shores to see the seals. It was a really fun day and one I will never forget. It was November, I was standing on the beach with live wild seals literally inches away from me. I so badly wanted to go swimming but obviously, it isn't exactly approved behaviour. We didn't even do that much today but the amount we chatted meant the day lasted forever. I was getting increasingly embarrassed by my Spanish friends stating Andy and I were on a date and they were our photographers (yes they literally were taking photos of us everywhere meanwhile filming our conversations and doing over the shoulder shots because they are going 'to make a movie'). Meanwhile making comments like "Oh you f**king blonde people with your perfect matching hair like the most perfect Californian couple." Yeah Spanish people don't hold back. Andy and I soon realised also the fact we had blonde hair apparently made us immediate enemies of them as we were continually called "you f**king blonde people". Yeah Betty has all the pictures of the day and literally I would say 80% of them are paparazzi style filming or taking pictures of Andy and me. At the end of the day, Andy even said "So thanks for date, you know the one we didn't know we were going on." Spanish people. Seriously. Best craziest friends ever. I don't think I have laughed as hard as I did today for a very long time. The amount of tears streaming down my face and the fact my throat is now really sore shows it was good day even if we did just go and visit the seals and then go for lunch (at a place Eduardo recommended so we were a bit wary at first due to previous experience but turned out to be pretty great).
