What an awesome vacation.
For Memorial Day Weekend, my family and I went to Virginia Beach. Our family and my parent's friend's family rented out a beach house for the long weekend. For those who didn't see my facebook status update:
That was the view from the balcony of the beach house we stayed in. Not water front, but only across the street is a sweet deal! 
The whole weekend was seriously fun. Every morning, I jogged on the beach (even met some cute joggers and early sun bathers) while watching the sunrise over the ocean, afternoons body surfing and boogie boarding, and evenings biking until sunset over the bay. You just can't live a better life than that!
Also went to the Virginia Aquarium which houses the best turtle exhibit I have ever seen but with my luck, they closed that section off for renovations.  Also hit up the Virginia Botanical Gardens. Very nice place. 
This pretty much cements what I want. A nice sunny climate to do this kind of thing regularly. Don't get me wrong, I love NJ, but being able to bike 10 miles of coast line with no drivers coming close to hitting me was unbelievable. I need to make this lifestyle for me possible. I need to move to Cali. Shoot, even Virginia Beach is looking good to me too. I want this badly. One day back and I am going through a serious withdrawal. So I'm expanding my new job search to all coastal places. Hopefully somewhere where a mountain for snowboarding is possible. lol. Then again, I would pick up surfing if I was by the water.
Side notes: I got sand rashes from boarding and one three inch semi deep scratch across my stomach along with several other all over my body since I forgot my rash guard shirt. I'll try and post pictures later if I can get them from my sister since my camera is busted. Got some good shots at the gardens to share with the macro.
