Our Final Week in California

Our last week in California we wanted to visit with some of our great friends and be sure to hit our favorite spots in San Diego.
On Sunday we went to The Turf Club for dinner. This is where we had our first date back in 2006! It is a cool little trendy steak restaurant where you cook your food on a big grill in the middle of the place. It is a fun place to go and it was great to see where we had our first date.
On Tuesday we hit up Luigi's Pizza in Mission Beach. This is our favorite Tuesday night tradition where you get a giant slice of pizza (It is giant!) for $1.39 and pints of beer for $1.50. They call it tight-wad Tuesdays. We met our great friends Colleen and Beth there. Our friend Colleen Poswers looks just like Colleen Dahlem! And they act just alike, and both Colleen's are going back to school on the east coast to get teaching credentials to become elementary school teachers! Check out the resemblence, here is Colleen and Colleen
and here is Beth and Jim
We will miss both of them very much!
Colleen even got a tank top from Luigis! We then went to the Sand Bar next door after Luigi's closed. We met our good friend Savitri there: Back in 2006 Sand Bar is where we met at the backpacking planning meeting. And watching the Cardinals world series games in 2006 at Luigi's is where we realized we had a crush on each other and prompted Jim to ask Colleen out for our first date.
Wednesday we went to Kabuki Sushi, our favorite sushi place in San Diego. The sushi comes around on boats around the sushi bar so you never have to wait for your food, you just pick it up and eat it!
Thursday we met LJ and Vinnie for game night at LJ's apartment. We will miss LJ a lot too and we are happy she has found such a great guy in Vinnie.
The movers then came to start packing up all of our stuff. We had an obstacle course of boxes in our condo:
Saturday morning met Colleen and Beth for bagels at Einstein Bagels in Hillcrest, our Saturday morning tradition.

After all the stuff was gone Kylie and Millie looked very lonely in our empty condo!
We were now ready for our long trip across the country!
