And finally, I bring you some photos of things that are truly on-course…Dragon Fruit! By now, the end of day four, I think my relatives had accepted my brand of photo-taking crazy, because they even got in on it at an exotic-fruits market. A few of them took it upon themselves to help me arrange these naturally gorgeous Dragon Fruit for a photo-op. It was cute! (And then I rearranged their arrangement when they weren’t looking, because I’m extra crazy.)
Hmmm…looking at this deep-fried Funnel Cake we got at SeaWorld kind of makes me want to eat it for breakfast right now.
I mean, (powdered) sugar is a key ingredient in many American breakfasts, is it not? On my California vacation, I visited familiar places—Disneyland and Universal Studios—as well as new sights—Legoland and SeaWorld. The kids unsurprisingly liked all four destinations. And the adults? Well, we found our Holy Trip Grail at a Vietnamese chain called Lee’s Sandwiches. We were awed, awed I tell you, at the complete freshness of the baguette sandwiches at Lee’s, and that customers had to take a number for their orders. (At my local Vietnamese sandwich shops, the protocol is to get in a disorganized line, catch the eye of the cashier, and tell/yell that person my order.) The fact that the Lee’s Sandwiches we went to near our hotel had a drive-through almost knocked our flip-flops off, too.
Some of the adults, myself included, started our mornings off with iced lattes made with Lee’s own coffee. A couple of my relatives thought that the lattes didn’t pack enough of the coffee flavor or caffeine punch (their conclusion may have had something to do with them being mommies, and needing extra energy), but I thought the balance was fine. |
