These pictures were taken 4-23-11 at Tenaja Falls. These trails can be found in the La Cresta Area, west of Murrieta. There are lots of trails to choose from and this particular one took a good 20 minutes to get to. Had to travel across some narrow mountain roads but still easily accessible.

Here's a glance of what you can see nearing the end of the trail we took, it was really quite the site.

At the end of our trail hike we came across the Tenaja Waterfalls, nothing huge but still a site to see. And a nice place to set up for a quick snack before heading back.

There is a lot of wild flowers up on the trail, this particular one is a Wild Hyacinth, they were quite common.

Third (and probably not last) set of pictures I took on our latest trip to seaworld...there will probably be more coming as we get into seaworld for free

One of two polar bears we saw at the exhibit, he plopped down after a while and I decided it made an nice shot.

Seaworld is definitely an awesome place to visit if you live in the SanDiego/Riverside area! Only about 45-60 minutes away from Murrieta it doesn't make for a bad drive either. This posts has a few pictures gathered on our second visit to Seaworld.

Oceanside beach is only 30-40 minutes away from Murrieta, and while a bit cold, still holds many nice sights to see, including a Pier with a Mimi's Cafe on it, hotels, events and lots more!

At the end of the day, there was a beautiful sunset towards the pier.

Off the parking lot this is the first thing you see.

Nothing like Beach Volley Ball!

About an hours drive south down to San Diego, you'll reach Sea world. An amusement park full of fun shows, exhibits and rides. Here are a few picture from the last time I went.

This was part of the Believe show, close to the end.
