Visit Catalina Island: Lloyd's of Avalon

Of course we stopped to get some ice cream while on Catalina Island.  We ended up at Lloyd's of Avalon , where one of the employees told us they source the ice cream from various vendors (so it's not housemade). Cookie Monster Mocha Almond Fudge Bubble Gum Honey Churro I had the Honey Churro, which was a little too sweet for my liking. Everyone else loved the ice cream flavors they chose, however. The ice cream definitely helped to beat the Catalina Island heat! Lloyd's of Avalon 315 Crescent Ave Avalon, CA 90704

Visit Tokyo: Gelato Miki

Just a 16-minute walk from our hotel was Gelato Miki.

The small shop has a limited amount of nine flavors daily, all crafted with quality ingredients.  One of their signature flavors is New Zealand-inspired Hokey Pokey.  They were all out when we visited, but I'm not sure if I would have gotten it anyway since we've tried Hokey Pokey when we were in New Zealand.  

Milk & Mascarpone


Acai & Raspberry

Mascarpone & Japanese Sake

Japanese Pepper & Masala Chai

Milk & Japanese Pepper

I had Milk & Japanese Pepper.  The Japanese Pepper incorporated sansho peppers (you could see flecks of green), and it was very mild.  

We all loved the dense, creamy gelato.

It was definitely a nice find in Tokyo!
