Hi lovelies! Crash Boat Beach is so gorgeous we had to go back twice! Today we were in the water for 5 or 6 hours! Then we celebrated nena's birthday at a nice beach side restaurant.
Hello from El Yunque! The good news for the people in this area is that they have water again. For now. Last night we all slept like babies with the coquis, sapo conchos, crickets, and birds singing us to sleep.
Kelsey Pfendler did it! She rowed into the harbor asking 8:54 pm Hawaiian time! It was so amazing to watch the livestream of her docking her boat, Lily, and receiving all the love from family, friends, and all of the people who were there to cheer her on. 41 days, 27 hours and 55 minutes!! 💙🚣🏼♀️
OMG lovelies, Kelsey Pfendler is almost there! What an amazing journey!! www.instagram.com/reel/DaWzi8R...
Kelsey Pfendler update: she's about 85 miles from O'ahu!! And she's on pace to beat the women's and men's records for a mid-Pacific solo row!! What an inspiration! 💙🚣♂️ www.instagram.com/reel/DaUQz4H...
Anyone else following Kelsey Pfendler aka @yourowkelsey (IG) on her journey to be the first American woman to solo row across the Pacific? As of yesterday afternoon she was 201 miles from O'ahu! Looks like she's got a real shot at breaking the record!
💁♀️ I swear she said something on an IG post weeks and weeks ago about this date and time...
Then we headed down to Sunset Cliffs in Ocean Beach, known to locals as "OB". The cliffs are unstable but it doesn't stop local kids from jumping off. Surf and riptides have been so bad the last few days that lifeguards were at the cliffs trying, unsuccessfully, to keep the kids from jumping.
Today was a perfect San Diego day. 75°, a cool breeze, and lots of families out at Mission Beach hopping to catch some waves and rays. Here a father and son duo are catching waves together. Lifeguards were patrolling heavy due to a pretty strong rip current.
Well my lovelies, it's been nice knowing you all. But I'm off to live a life of luxury thanks to the generosity of this person who has left me $6.3 million in hopes that we will meet again in our next lives. 🤭 PS- make sure your elders don't fall for any of these scams.
I'd like to thank Ariana Grande for making her ticket prices so expensive that I can't afford to take Nena. Seriously, she's saving my sanity. But also, $735 per ticket in the people's nosebleeds is beyond ridiculous.

California, we have got to do better in November. Our kids deserve better!
Ladybugs are my favorite bug, and I never pass up a chance to move one to safety. (Bees, too.) But last night I was thinking about how I haven't seen one outside of those I bought last month for my yard in a long time. Well, look who came to visit me right now! So tiny ❤️🐞
One day you're taking your three year old to see "Frozen" and the next day she's at the movies with three of her besties while you wait at home. It really does go by so fast. 🥹❤️
I love cucumber with lime and tajin pero if it looks like a pata, no gracias!
My photos do not do Cabo Rojo justice. Hopefully I'll get better photos this summer! Thank you! ❤️🇵🇷
Nena and I spent a few days in Cabo Rojo on our last trip to Puerto Rico and that's when I fell in love with this beautiful little seaside town. The people were so warm and lovely, and the natural beauty is unmatched.
"I'm a real prince!" Have you seen his son, Lewis?! I watched "Remarkably Bright Creatures" this weekend and kept thinking the leading man looked familiar.
Listen. I like pickles, but this pickle tomfoolery needs to stop. Not everything needs to be pickle flavored!
