it's blogmas day 3! today i want to share some pics from an impromptu day trip i went on with my roomie the day after finals. we had something completley different planned for the day, but those plans changed and we decided to do this instead. although completley spontaneous, i'm glad we did it. it was super festive being in a small town, drinking fresh cider and eating warm pie. the best part was that it was actually cold, which isn't really a thing in san diego. all in all, it was a day well spent after a week of test taking.
just my roomie being a total pimp.
julian is only an hour and a half from san diego, but it's like an escape into a completely different world. it's a small town tucked away in the hils surrounded by fields, and sometimes they even get snow. there's always something to do anytime of the year, but i think during the christmas season it gets especially festive. if you visit, you have to try their famous apple pies. the best is from Mom's; and while the line may be out the door and twice as long as the other pie places (because yes, there are multiple), it is totally worth the wait.
i just love how the town was all decked out for the holidays!
even the drive there is beautiful, and it was breathtaking driving back with the sun setting behind the hills.
i would totally recommend a day trip to julian if you live in the san diego area and want a little getaway. it's worth the trip! xo shawndiz
