Last week my best friend and I road tripped it down to Thousand Oaks! I haven't been back there for about 2 years and it felt AMAZING to have my car down there. I moved when I was fifteen so I never got the chance to drive around. It was the best feeling to know exactly where everything was even though I had never driven there before!
Of course, the first day we got there it was raining, so we just went to my favorite beach El Matador to cuddle up in some blankets and listen to the ocean (below) but the next day the skies were clear so we headed to Zuma all morning and soaked up as much sun as we could!
Unfortunately, we over-did the sun-soaking and got ridiculously burned. And now I am peeling like crazy...Ooops?
Driving in the canyons with only our swimsuits on and the windows down, listening to Vampire Weekend and the 500 Days of Summer soundtrack made the trip for me.
And these are some of the things I LOVE about California:
protraro, nordic nursery, the 101freeway, green everything, flowers, palmgrove avenue, squirrels, lynn road, the oaks, Greenmeadow park, el matador, Zuma, NPHS, lizards, seagulls, home, orange trees, in n out, the sun, cleanness, Longs, Baja Fresh, strawberries, good drivers (ha)!

Wow, sounds like fun!! Someday I'm going to road trip to California in a RED Convertible and listen fun music all the way!!!
I like your pictures! Many good things about California the SUN being a huge part of that!!
Good for you, and so Great to have you back around!!
Good drivers in California? Or is it the visitors that are good drivers, Lexus drivers to be precise?
i miss california :( i loved living there
I think we miss the same things Michelle. I do miss Nordic Nursery, Longs and aggressive drivers. Not fast, just drive like you mean it!
Hey, do me a favor and take the Lexus through Hidden Valley. With the windows down. Listen to one of these three things: belle and sebastian (Album with Funny Little Frog on it), Mates of State (Bring It Back), Rilo Kiley (More Adventurous), or/and Death Cab for Cutie (Plans). Please and Thanks.
I just realized that you're in Canada. Next time. Woops.
squirrels.
