Catalina Pictures

The Ferry Ride

This is John and I on the boat with Catalina in the background.

This is the ferry's wake. Imagine water skiing behind that big thing!

This is when we pulled into the port and started to unload.
Welcome to Catalina!

We stayed in the town of Avalon. It was so cute! Here is a little picture tour of the town.

These are all of the sail boats docked at the harbor and the big casino building. This is the pretty main street that had cute shops and restaurants looking right out at the ocean.

Every house had cute beach like decor. This is John with his new mermaid girlfriend. She's so scandalous John she doesn't even have a shirt!

I took this photo for dad. There were such strange plants on the island. People didn't really have potted flowers instead they had these greens that looked so cute.

Everyone decorated with these beautiful tiles that I'm sitting by. The whole town was covered with them. Mom would have loved it!

This sign was just crazy and I had to point it out. :)

I'm not sure what kind of flower this is but it was everywhere! It looked so pretty with its colors but also very pointy.

This was just so funny and reminded me of Carolyn and Chris with, "Dumb dumb, me want gum gum!" hehe

John and I went into a couple shops and at this one we found some awesome sunglasses. What do you think?!

Early Sunrise

John and I thought it would really fun to get up super early to see the sunrise over the pacific. It was a very early morning but it was well worth it! Just look at the pictures.

This is us once the sun rose. Sleepy face!

This is the harbor before the sun came up.

I like this shot. I tried be photo stylist like mom. :)

Here comes the sun! do do do!


Kayaking around the Island

John and I went kayaking for a few hours before heading back to the main land. It was so much fun and a really great way to see the island. The water was such a crazy color and it was just neat to say that we were kayaking in the pacific ocean!!!

We got really close to seeing some sea birds. These are pelicans.


Here's me paddling telling John not to tip the boat!


John and I brought lunch with us and found a great spot to stop for a bite.

I like this picture too! :)

This is John paddling.


Our trip was fantastic! We had so much fun and got to do some great things! Please read a couple posts back for the full story. :) Miss you all!
