An Afternoon Adventure

This morning we jumped on the Catalina Flyer and made our way 26 miles across the sea to Catalina Island to visit with one of my best friends, Lisa. She and I have been great friends since high school and while "real life" has kept us apart since graduation, it's such a blessing to know that when we do get the rare chance to reconnect, we can pick up right where we left off.

The Flyer got us to the main city of Avalon this morning where Lisa met us, and then we jumped on a skiff and headed over to "Campus by the Sea" where Lisa's family spends every summer running an InterVarsity family camp. I was able to attend this camp the summer before my senior year of high school and had a fantastic time. Collin had never seen "camp", so it was fun to give him a tour. We also got the chance to catch up with Lisa's parents, Paul and Virginia, who are just awesome.

Here are some photos from our (way too quick) trip. Whenever Lisa and I are together time just seems to fly by. Hopefully it won't be as long before we get to see one another again!

Please note the very cool "surfboard" showers & the fact that Collin fell on the stairs (almost taking me down with him)
