<\/a>Here is a picture of the outside of the US Grant Hotel where we stayed, compliments of Stampin’ Up!\u00a0 The gold you see on the building is real gold!<\/p>\n![\"US](\"https:\/\/www.stampthat.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/09\/blog2.jpg\")

And here is glimpse of what the hotel looks like at night.\u00a0 You have to be there to really see it all and catch the full effect.\u00a0 Beautiful!<\/p>\n

Of course we couldn’t go all the way to California and not catch a glimpse of the Pacific!\u00a0 That was a first for both of us.<\/p>\n

The closer we flew to San Diego, the fewer clouds there were.\u00a0 We were able to see so much landscape from the plane!\u00a0 God’s creation is just amazing!\u00a0 I’ve never been that far west before and the sights from the window were just amazing to me!\u00a0 While there in San Diego, we learned that it is really all desert.\u00a0 All the trees that are in San Diego were brought in from places around the world and planted (we learned a lot more to the history but I’ll give you the short version!)\u00a0 We saw a fig tree from Australia and trees from so many other places.<\/p>\n
