I woke up at 12:51 to crazy coughing sounds in the bathroom and realized that one of the girls was throwing up. Misha. Poor thing. I found her hunched over the toilet again at 2 am and 3 am. Chris found her there around 4. I went to check on her at 5 where she promptly threw up in a bowl I had set out for her. She finished throwing up around 7. The area under her eyes was dotted with petechiae from throwing up so much and she was wasted and tired.
We had to be out of the apartment by 10 am and began packing up. Chris and Kristen made a quick trip to McDonalds for some breakfast. We tried to make Misha comfortable in the car as we decided a change of plans was in order. We had planned to drive around in the morning to explore and then do a scavenger hunt in Balboa Park in the afternoon. Instead, we spent the day leisurely driving through the rolling hills up to Palomar Mountain State Park and around to San Diego.
Apparently you should never throw snow balls in California.
We stopped at San Luis Rey Mission in Oceanside, Palomar Mountain Observatory, Santa Ysabel for lunch, Dudley's Famous Bakery for cinnamon rolls, and a quick stop in Julian to check out the Main Street.
These flowers are called Crown of Thorns.

Misha hung out in the car most of the time and rested. She walked around Old Town San Diego with us but sat every chance she got. We toured the Mormon Battalion, had dinner in Old Town, and stopped for gas before dropping off the rental car and heading to the airport. Our flight was about 15 minutes delayed. We didn't get home until about 2 am. Phew. Tired.
