Birthday Dilemma: Home or Hotel?

Avery loved our hotel, props to the SD Grand Hyatt.  
The view from our room included a little red train that would come by all day, with a little "ding, ding" every time.  When it went out of view, she'd say "where'd the train go?".  We'd reassure her it would come back soon.


From the other side of the room was her favorite view, the pool.

We went swimming every day and Avery had a major courage breakthrough jumping off the stair to us and if her head didn't go under she would be disappointed and say "head go under" and try again.  We had lots of fun in the pool.  It was chilly but she didn't mind one bit. 

SeaWorld was the day before her birthday.  On her birthday morning, we ran to a restaurant called The Mission for breakfast, it was delicious, highly recommend it. Avery enjoyed french toast and pancakes and orange juice too.  Jon had a healthy but truly delicious egg white, tofu, brown rice dish.  Don't worry, he shared our pancakes and french toast too.  We then walked back to the hotel through downtown San Diego. We then went swimming one last time before check out, it was her actual birthday after all!  

As we pulled into the garage, mommy saying "home again, home again, jiggity jig!" Avery was crying saying "no home, more hotel, go hack to the hotel."  Ahhhh, home sweet home.
