Sailing to Catalina



My Brother in law Myles invited us to go sailing to Catalina Island a few weekends back. We had such a good time. It was the day after we got back from Idaho Falls so it felt a little crazy to get ready for it. We left our kids with my sister Heather who is amazing! It was nice to have a get away that wasnt too far from home and SOOOO fun!

Ben and Katie came too which made for some great laughs and intense card games!







We even still loved it after deciding to jump in the water, swim clear to shore, and then finding out the water was Highly contaminated and seeing signs everywhere saying WARNING: DO NOT SWIM!

Looks like Myles has the doughnuts under control in the first photo.

That boat looked amazing!!!! How fun to have someone in the family who has access to a boat like that! How many does the boat sleep? Did you just go for the day?

AW! I'm jealous. I remember when we slept on that boat because there was no room at the inn. It was so fun!

How fun! So did any of you get the runs? That boat looks incredible, I swear you guys have the best resources and get to see and do so much. Little bit jealous! We are just the small potatoes stuck in Idaho!

How fun! OK, I'm still giggling over the part about the contaminated water...

You forgot to mention the anxiety of the tipping sailboat...:) Wish I could have been there.
