Where did the last week go? California Eats & Euro Auto Fest

Yeah…so, I definitely was planning on engaging you with my amazing adventures in California this past week and then I got back into work, got back into my running, and before I knew it…it was Friday and the Hubs and I were heading to South Carolina for the Euro Auto Fest.  Hubby was featuring his Saab (I lovingly call him a Saab Snob)

I figure you all didn’t want to hear all the mundane details of my vacation and, besides, the pictures speak for themselves.  Central California was beautiful.  The weather was kinda weird.  I wasn’t ready for 20 degree differences driving back and forth over the hills.  I didn’t remember the Pacific Ocean being THAT cold!

Anyway, I did want to share with y’all some of the amazing eats I had in California.  It was awesome!  We did end up eating out almost EVERY meal.   At amazing places, too.  Check it out:

We ate sooooo many strawberries.  The best kind of strawberries too…purchased from roadside fruit stands!  I loved it!

My first crepe…the strawberry, banana, nutella version complete with ice cream on the side!

One of the many drinks we had fire side.  Fire pits everywhere!

Anyway, after we got back I was thrown head first into work.  I work for a very small company and I’m the only admin person.  Needless to say, lots of emails and call backs to be made.

I survived the week.  Before I knew it it was Friday.  Time to hit the road again.  The Hubs is part of a local Saab Club and they get together regularly to show off their cars, and talk about their cars, and buy stuff for their cars, etc.  It’s kind of cute 😛

This weekend was the annual Euro Auto Fest in Greer, SC.  We drove down Friday night, stayed in a pretty craptastic hotel (which I won’t go into…I’m trying to forget!) and headed to the BMW plant to get our spot.  We spent the day walking around the lawn checking out 400+ European cars.

Of course I took my camera.  Here are a couple of my favorites from the day.

*Disclaimer-I don’t know ANYthing about these cars.  I just think they’re cool (and pretty!)

Elf Limo?  That Land Rover is ready for safari!  And how about that VW bus camper?  I would totally drive that and camp out in Yosemite.  The Rolls Royce is so beautiful too.

It was a super fun day.  The sun was shining, the weather was great.  It was fun hanging out with my hubby all day and sharing his hobby.  I may not know much about cars but I’m learning.

Hope you all had a great weekend!  Here’s to another busy week.  Next weekend I am planning on staying home and relaxing!  No plans for me.  I can’t wait!  Later, Peeps!
