2022 came quietly to an end, how was everyone’s year? From being pregnant in the beginning of the year to our babies being three months old now! Time really flew by. Looking back there were too many blessings to be counted!

2022悄悄的進入尾聲，不知道大家今年過得如何？從年初懷孕到現在寶寶們三個月大，時間快的不像話，但回顧這一整年真的是滿滿的感恩。

Izola

710 13th St Suite 300, San Diego, CA 92101

Known as the best croissant in America! (click here for UN and I’s review) Thanks to our cooperative babies for sleeping very well the night before, we were able to get up early and leave the house on time to make it down to San Diego for some croissants. On Christmas Eve, not many people were on the road, usually a parking spot in downtown is rare to find, but we found one right in front of Izola. When we got there, there was a sign out front that said “sold out”, and some customers in front of us left in disappointment. But we drove for almost an hour, I had to at least go in to check out the place for myself. There were two lines, one for online pre-order, and the other for walk-in order. I refused to believe all croissants were sold out, so I went to the guy at the cashier and asked. He told me they only have original croissants left, but in 15 minutes there would be more options coming out from the oven! Even my mom was happy for us hearing the good news!

Business Hour: Thursday to Sunday, 8 am to 1 pm

吃到傳說中全美第一名的可頌！（我和UN的吃後心得請點這裡）感謝寶寶們配合，前一晚睡超好，讓爸爸媽咪阿嬤能出發到San Diego吃可頌。可能是聖誕節前一天，市區沒有太多人，平時超難停車的downtown，我們竟然能找到門口的位置。Izola位在三樓，但轉角和門口都有放指示牌。當我們要進去時，在我們前面一組客人看到門口寫著Sold Out（售完）就轉身走人。但我這人，售完還是要進去看一下，太好奇了沒辦法！裡面有分預售隊伍和現場購買的隊伍，不死心的我向前問店員，店員說：我們只剩下原味可頌，但15分鐘後會有不同口味！我的天啊，連我媽只是來陪我們吃可頌都替我們開心！（原本我們想網上預訂，但餵完寶寶後一看，全賣光！）

營業時間：星期四至星期日，早上8點到下午1點

Capital Seafood Restaurant

770 Spectrum Center Dr Suite 770, Irvine, CA 92618

Have you heard of the saying that “after having kids, all your meals are eaten cold”? When the food came out, our babies started to get really fuzzy, so UN and I needed to take them out and leave my mom by herself at the restaurant. By the time we got back all the food was cold. But this is what made this restaurant’s food special: their cold dim sum dishes were still so delicious!

有聽過”生完小孩後吃飯都是冷的”這句話嗎？我們食物來時剛好寶寶們情緒起伏比較大，我和UN把我媽丟在餐廳裡去處理。回來後食物全冷掉了，但這就是這餐廳的厲害之處，連冷掉的港式點心都超好吃！那鹹水角是我們的最愛，外皮酥脆吃起來還特別香，第一口下去我和UN，我們一口同聲稱讚這家店。今天點的每份點心都超滿意，UN一直說我們下次回來要把沒點到的全點了。我們也很愛燒鴨皮蛋粥！

San Diego Botanical Garden Lightscape

Quail Gardens Drive and, Ecke Ranch Rd, Encinitas, CA 92024

Last day of 2022, we came to the San Diego Botanical Garden for the light show. Hmmm… how should I describe the light show? We all agreed that the light show in Japan made our expectations too high, but I’d like to come back during daytime.

2022年最後一天我們來這裡慶祝！以前在聖地牙哥住這麼久，我們第一次來這裡。日本燈展還是比較厲害（朋友也這樣認為），但下次我想白天來參觀植物園。
