first glimpses of our babymoon

Today, Sam and I are headed home from our spring break trip. While I'm stuck in the car for 11 hours (inevitably asking Sam to stop for yet another bathroom break), I have for you a few snapshots of our trip. What else is there to say about our vacation except that IT WAS THE BEST EVER. We slept in, we ate too much, we walked for miles and miles exploring the beautiful city of San Diego, we got sunburns, and we loved it. It was so great to have this last vacation with just the two of us, before baby comes.

I have pictures upon pictures to post of the city we both became obsessed with, but here's a little glimpse of my vacation. These pictures are all from my instagram (follow here @brookejanette).

San Diego, you were so good to us!

Semi-unrelated sidenote: how do you get good pictures of you and your significant other on a trip? I tried several times to hand my camera to a passerby, but let's just say, the pictures are terrible at best. Honestly. I'm not even IN one of the pictures a stranger took for us. I don't want to bring the tripod and set it up in the middle of the zoo or wherever. I even try to look for someone with a camera who looks like they know what's up. Do I have to be more demanding and specific of the strangers I ask to take our picture? Should I use my iPhone so strangers don't feel intimidated? Should I just give up on the idea? Tips please!
