Surprise trip to California

Last week Nils surprised me with a trip to California to hang out with my cousin Jose Carlos who was visiting from Peru. So, sunday night Nils bought my ticket to sunny California and I was on my way on thursday morning. I arrived at LAX at around 2ish pm. and my brother Sergio, his girlfriend Tami and my cousin Jose Carlos picked me up. I can't believe it had been 10 years since the last time I saw him, it was very nice to finally been able to be part of the pictures he was taking with my brothers and just to hang out with everybody. That day we went out to eat at a peruvian restaurant called "Choza Mama" and after that we drove to Hollywood : )

I always love going to Hollywood to look at the stars and take pictures of them. My cousin had one goal: to find the star of Luis Miguel ( his favorite singer) that of course happened to be on the opposite side from where we parked, but it was nice to walk for a while and catch up on each other's life, then we headed back to Murrieta to surprise my mom, who had no idea I was in town. The next day Angel, Jose Carlos and I went to the beach to relax and enjoy the beach. There, we met up with my aunt Veronica and my cousins Kathy, Renzo and Vanessa. We played in the Ocean, and I enjoyed the waves with Vanessa, Angel and my adorable aunt. We had an awesome time! Jose Carlos went in the ocean with Angel but then (as any old person) decided to lay down and took a nap. After the beach we drove back to my mom's place, ate and went shopping to the mall.

On Thursday all of the boys and I went to Universal Studios. We had a blast! we went to all of the different shows, and enjoyed some of the rides. I believed our favorite ones were The Simpsons' ride and the tour around the different scenarios. We got to drive through Desperate Housewives' street which made my day! : ) I had so much fun hanging out with the boys, and this day was for me the best day of the whole trip, because it gaves us a day for all of us to re conect and remembered old times.

Friday we spent the whole day we all went to Disneyland and had a magic day, took lots of pictures and ate some goodies.

Saturday was my last day there with everybody. In the morning Paola, Alejandra and Kaddin showed up to go get breakfast, so we had some girl's time. It was nice to see them, specially Paola because is moving to Peru for a while, so I won't be able to see her during holidays or to just get on the phone with her whenever I want to. After having breakfast with them, I went back to my mom's house to say goodbye to everyone because it was already time to go to the airport. I had so much fun during this trip, it was great to catch up with my cousin and hang out with him and my brothers just like we used to when we were kids in Peru.
