Our trip is all booked and we&#8217;re leaving on Tuesday, June 21st! Yay!! :) So here&#8217;s where we&#8217;ve netted out. We&#8217;ll be flying into Phoenix, AZ and road tripping up to Utah to the glorious Zion National Park (oh yeah)!! We&#8217;ll stay in Zion for 2 nights and then head to Monument Valley, which straddles Utah and Arizona. I can&#8217;t wait to see this place in person &#8212; it&#8217;ll be so extremely cinematic.

We&#8217;ll stay in MV for 2 nights and then we do the big drive to Los Angeles, where we stay for 3 nights with cousins. In Los Angeles, we&#8217;ll be seeing quite a few things but are particularly excited to go beach hopping &#8212; Venice Beach, Santa Monica Pier and Malibu Surfrider Beach are at the top of our list. We&#8217;ll also be using one of our LA days as a day trip to San Diego; we haven&#8217;t quite figured out what we&#8217;re doing in SD but likely join the San Diego County Fair &#8212; sounds like a great time! After San Diego, we drive along highway 1 to Santa Barbara where we stay and do more beach time for a couple of nights. :)<\/p>\n<p>Sounds like the perfect trip and I can&#8217;t wait to come back with TONS of new pictures! In all honesty, I still have not even gone through the full extent of our Europe pictures from last summer, so I&#8217;m behind. But there&#8217;s never too many pictures!<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #f7999b;\">NOTE A DELAY IN ORDER PROCESSING TIMES:<\/span> All orders placed between June 19th and July 2nd will be shipped the week of July 11th.<\/p>\n<p>Cheers and back again shortly!<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"Explore cinque terre\"><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" src=\"http:\/\/www.charleneprecious.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/06\/05.30.16.jpg\" alt=\"05.30.16\" width=\"810\" height=\"810\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-17875\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.charleneprecious.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/06\/05.30.16.jpg 810w, https:\/\/www.charleneprecious.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/06\/05.30.16-150x150.jpg 150w, https:\/\/www.charleneprecious.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/06\/05.30.16-450x450.jpg 450w, https:\/\/www.charleneprecious.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/06\/05.30.16-624x624.jpg 624w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 810px) 100vw, 810px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":null,"protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":[],"categories":[11],"tags":[],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v20.2.1 - https:\/\/yoast.com\/wordpress\/plugins\/seo\/ -->\n<title>Gone Exploring! - Charlene Precious Co.<\/title>\n<meta name=\"robots\" content=\"index, follow, max-snippet:-1, max-image-preview:large, max-video-preview:-1\" \/>\n<link rel=\"canonical\" href=\"https:\/\/www.charleneprecious.com\/blog\/vacay-time\/\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:locale\" content=\"en_US\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:type\" content=\"article\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:title\" content=\"Gone Exploring! - Charlene Precious Co.\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:description\" content=\"Our trip is all booked and we&#8217;re leaving on Tuesday, June 21st!
