After some of your great suggestions on things to After some of your great suggestions on things to do / enjoy before baby arrives, we decided to drive up the coast yesterday morning and hang around Encinitas.  We don't normally head that far North for the beach, but Lord knows we definitely won't once baby is here ðŸĪŠ We got some delicious coffee from @ironsmithcoffee, we tried the famous Leucadia Donut Shoppe donuts, and we walked all over town.  What kind of weekend did you enjoy?
