Better late than...


Valido Trail is in south Laguna, about half a mile, steep climb to the top.  There's a bench at the sumit overlooking the ocean, with a beautiful view of The Ranch golf course on the other side in the picture I took today.


On the way down, there was a family of three who hesitated to walk past what turned out to be the laziest snake I've come across - and I haven't encountered many snakes in my life - but this one was stretched out across the walking path and made little to no effort to move as everyone eventually walked past it, and I stopped to take a close up picture.

After the hike, I ate breakfast at AbhA below the trail, which is Mediterranean/Israeli food - what a gem.  I can't believe I've been going to Laguna forever and yet I didn't know about this place.  Better late than pregnant....

Eggbert: My 8th grader's art project

 

Eggbert Eggsasperated is a long time inhabitant of Alpha Island. IF he had any friends, they would likely describe him as an irritating individual, despite his culinary talents. That’s right. Sir Eggbert is the most infamous chef in all of Alpha Island, even having secured a job as Emperor UnJolly the Rancher’s personal chef. His controversial meals have brought him many customers, and his restaurant, Eggy’s Eggdibles has items such as pickled toes, fried eyeballs, dandruff salad, and even *gasp* scrambled eggs on the menu. Some of his most popular drinks include the eyeball juice extraordinaire, sweat soda, and his monthly special, the sewer samosa. If you ever visit Alpha Island, be cautious when in Eggbert’s presence, for as the locals will tell you, Eggbert literally eats his enemies for breakfast.
