Weekly Reflection 2019 – 08

Magic I Saw this Week: This week was full of magic. We drove from the Bay Area to Manhattan Beach and we left in pouring rain and arrived in full sunshine. The views were all magic. Our lovely hotel room with space for everyone was magic. All the walking we did was magic. The google offices were magical. The sea was amazing and the views were magical. And of course San Diego was a special magic of its own. 

Magic I Made this Week:  I took my family on vacation. We went to Venice Beach, to Google Venice Beach, to San Diego Zoo, on a wonderful hike to the top of Los Angeles and to Hollywood Boulevard. We took time together. It really was magical.
