Survivor's guide: day 40

Looks like the volcano is settling enough to let Laura get home to me.  Hopefully it settles enough to be nice to the Icelanders.

Today was a day full of adventure and tasty food. WE went to the jelly belly factory where my family has not been to.  It was fun seeing their wide eyed amazement at the process.  It really is quite amazing when you consider the sheer volume of beans that are made.    They have a new flavor now, honey. Surprising really that they haven't made it until now.  It is really tasty.

We also went to Mt. Diablo park.  It is a huge park.  We drove up to the top.  When we saw the huge line we were hungry and didn't want to wait to get in, pay for a five minute look about, then leave.  So we made a U-turn. The ride up was quite nerve racking.  A sheer drop was on the side as we were coming up, my side.  I don't like heights much, I don't like it when it looks like we are going to roll off and tumble to our slow and painful death.

I made burgers for dinner tonight.  Tomorrow it will be sweet green chili chicken quesadillas.  Yum yum.

40 days down, 9 to go :D
