Soaking Up the Sun in SoCal

After lunch at a beach front cafe, completed with shared sushi and a mahi mahi bowl (heaven in my mouth), me and Haley made our way to the waves and white sand of Newport Beach. The cold west coast water is SO different than the warm, clear Gulf that is similar to bath water that I'm used to in Florida. However, the huge waves were like nothing I've ever seen. It was fun to lay out, watch the surfers and attempt to brace the forceful current. So Cal is quickly stealing my heart... <3
