For Pauls birthday we took a mini vacation and flew to Los Angeles. We didn't do anything spectacular, just mainly lounged on the beaches and worked on our tans. Or burns. Mostly burns. Either way it was good to spend some time with family. Hopping on another airplane really made my dream of travelling the world for a few years very fresh in my mind. Anyway, as usual I love to overload on pictures. Enjouy!
Coincidentally, I had spilled ice cream ALL OVER my pants, which this was my first time wearing them, of course.
The view outside our apartment.
An even better view.
My Maria Baria. [insert heart emoji here]
Paulacious and his penchant for owning the most fabulous attire.
Brunch at the Penthouse!
These (sword)fish tacos were the best I've had in my life. The black bean salad was almost just as good... Almost
I forgot to flip this image earlier and now I just don't feel like doing it anymore. Besides, I'm sure we could all stretch our necks for a bit here and there ;)
Unplanned matching with Benjamin. Oh, Hi Tatiana!
Taking photos of Masha taking photos of me. Photoception.
These flowers reminded me of Greece. They had red and purple flowers sprawling all over the houses there. This reminds me that I should probably post all of my pictures from Greece and Turkey.....................
Chasing the waves. We had the most glorious fun! I have not laughed so hard in a while as I did playing in the ocean.
Only after about the 70th picture were we able to capture a perfect, cheesy jumping picture.
The best couple I know.
Hey guys, let's all pretend to laugh at something and then conveniently forget what it was we were laughing about.
The birthday boy. Paul has the most hilarious sense of humor! If you don't have him on Snapchat you should probably add him. I don't know what his username is, you'd have to go find out for yourself. Either way, he's a really funny dude.
Bikes on Venice Beach!!
Ugh I love them.
Chasing the sunset.
Venice Beach Canals in the day.
And the canals at night. It was gorgeous! 
There was a huge 22k acre sand fire nearby and it made the most spectacular sunset. Funny how something so terrifying and destructive could be so beautiful.
Masha long legs.
If your'e a bird, I'm a bird.
I didn't realize how many pictures I took of them until after this post. There are approximately 73 more of these on my phone.
This was NO EDITING at all! I mean, the sky was just gorgeous.
Of course I had to snap a picture of my Black Forest cake with fresh raspberries. How could I not?
Waiting to board the plane back home.
Maria gets the filter too.
I got to sit by Paul! I have no idea but I had the hardest time trying not to laugh during this picture.
Reunited. My heart. 
Gorgeous Pictures!
