Back Home and my Actifit Report Card: August 26 2025

We just came back home from a short vacation to San Diego. We flew out on Saturday morning and came back Tuesday evening.

Just yesterday, I was in the ocean with our daughter. The ocean water seemed cold at first, but just after a little while, I got used to it, and we were both enjoying the waves.

We took an Uber to the Coronado and went to the Coronado beach. Before going to the beach, we went through the Hotel Del Coronado.

We stopped by our favorite ice cream place in the hotel, and our daughter picked vanilla and chocolate ice cream in a waffle cone, and we settled on Creamsicle.

I picked peanut butter Creamsicle, and my wife went with pinacolada. After trying my peanut butter one, she decided that she liked it more, and we switched.

It was very hot and ice cream was melting faster than we could consume it. We finished our ice cream and went to the beach.

The sand felt really hot under our feet. I didn't want to deal with flip flops, so we left them by our beach chairs, and I put our daughter on my shoulders and walked to the beach.

She was quite surprised that I could walk on such a hot sand. I feel the burn and pain from it, but I make myself go past it. A little bit of pain is no big deal.

She is twelve and weighs just over seventy pounds, so I still can give her rides on my shoulders. I wonder how much longer before she stops enjoying those shoulder rides, or I get too old to do it...

I guess I will just enjoy it while it lasts. Our trip was fun and full of enjoyable activities, but we all felt that coming back home was great. There is no place like home.

Upon arrival, the first thing we did was check on our aquariums. Unfortunately, while we were traveling, one of our platy fish died. She was really old and displayed signs of getting weaker for a while, so it was not entirely unexpected.

After I dealt with the dead fish, I went to our backyard to water the tomatoes. The tomatoes survived the heat wave, though some of them had clear sun burn spots on the fruits.

We had one of the tomatoes and some Russian pelmeni and our traditional tea together. A great wrap-up to the trip and settling back to our home routine.

Tomorrow is a work day, and I will be doing another production release. We had our fun trip and a change of scenery, and now I will be able to tackle work challenges with renewed energy.

When we are traveling, it is easy to get to ten thousand steps. So today I am once again over ten thousand. I am a bit tired from the flight even though it was only around two and a half hours. So it's time to get some sleep.
