Tuesday

On Friday night we arrived in Ventura at about 2am. We watched a couple of episodes of Flight of the Conchords and then slept. We woke up at about noon on Saturday and just lazed around all day - it was nice not being in the car, or being on any kind of schedule! We watched more Flight of the Conchords (after getting familiar with all the songs, I had to see what the show was like), played Xbox, and ate mexican food. Autumn's older (middle-aged) cousin and his wife came round and we watched some dirt bike showreels while we ate.

On Sunday we all went to see an airshow at Point Mugu naval air station. There were lots of cool flying displays from stunt planes, military planes, and a display team called the Blue Angels. In the evening Autumn and I hung out with her friend Leila, watched Shaun of the Dead and made stuffed felt shapes (I made a flower for Autumn, she made a dinosaur for me). 

Yesterday we met Jenna again and went to the park with her dog to play frisbee and ate lunch at Chipotle, which was pretty tasty. In the evening Autumn, Leila, Jenna and I went to Golf 'n' Stuff and had fun on the games, won lots of tickets, and got lots of prizes. Later Sakwa and Jason joined us and we went to the fair - which we got into for free thanks to Leila being a county employee! It was fun, we went on a cool ride and played some games, Jenna won a stuffed penguin. We all went back to Leila's dad's again and played games - one called Set which was difficult but fun (especially difficult when you're colourblind), and one called Blokus.

Today we slept in quite late and are now going to lunch with Leila.

Leila bought us lunch which was really nice of her, we got real Mexican food from Taqueria Vallarta, it was very very good. After lunch we went to a shop called Rocket Fizz where I got Dal a selection of candy. Then Autumn and I came home, watched more Conchords and went to the beach. In the evening Julie and Joe took us to Red Robin for a tasty dinner, and we got fancy chocolate from See's. It's so sad that tomorrow is my last day!
