I had the opportunity to take my family whale watching in Dana Point with Dana Wharf Whale Watching…and what a treat!  It was such a fantastic experience, I want to tell you all about it.

First of all, Dana Point Harbor is absolutely gorgeous – if you haven’t had the chance to spend time down there, GO!  It so fun to walk around, see all of the boats, window shop, and eat.

Dana Wharf Whale Watching recommended that we arrive at around 4:30 to check-in…and of course with my two little darlings, we ran in at 4:42…and were greeted with smiles and directions to Dock #1.

We Found Whales!

As we boarded their flagship 95 ft. Dana Pride boat for our 5 p.m. cruise, my kids could hardly contain their excitement.  It was a very warm afternoon, so we couldn’t wait to get out on the water.  Plus, my son is currently obsessed with the ocean, sea life, and boats. So this was a BIG deal for him.  The captain had his top window open as guests were boarding, so the kids were able to wave “hi.”

Cool Activities in Warm Weather

Oh my goodness, it is getting WARM (dare I say, hot?!)!  Especially in the afternoon when I pick my kiddos up from school.  I thought it would be fun to gather activity ideas to keep kids cool and entertained in Orange County (and you too, moms!) – warm weather, cool activities = happy kids and moms.

Here are five of my personal favorites around town…

Spring Bucket List: Go Fly a Kite!

Go Fly a Kite This Spring

With spring comes the rush of swirling winds; there are even infamous ones here in OC like the Santa Ana’s, but right now we have nice cool ones, rolling off the ocean and right into your life! When I made up my spring bucket list “fly a kite” had to be included because I have a very sweet memory (at the bottom of this post), and really wanted to do it again. I hope this post inspires you to go fly a kite this spring!
