I didn’t go into Memorial Day weekend with too many plans, but walked away having had a ton of fun.
Thursday, I got to go and check out Molly Moon’s new waterfront location. Pictured below is the biggest sundae I’ve ever had in my life (so delicious).
I spent Sunday having a beach picnic with a friend over at Golden Gardens. My base tan has been acquired.
And on Monday, me and a couple of friends went and cruised around the Woodland Park Zoo. It was a first visit for all of us.
Soooo much fun.
