I was born in Tijuana, Baja California, Mexico in 1976, as the youngest child in a big family.
My parents would say I am the source of mayhem in the family, because when my dad would try to punish me, I’d just run. He’d have to send my older siblings to catch me.
I remember being afraid of growing old when I was a kid.
I was pretty popular in school, because of my youthful personality.
I also remember wining first place in a track competition that was held against many other schools. Coming out on top against so many others made it a proud and memorable moment for me.
Even though I was a great student when I wanted to be, I didn’t go to university, because of economic hardships and personal choices.
I got married at 17, which is too young for someone who was afraid of growing old.
Sergio is a master silkscreen artist.
I’ve work many jobs during my lifetime, but the best was as a pressman, printing skateboards for the renown company, Watson Laminates.
I’ve been with the company for over 25 years, and feel like I haven’t aged a day. It feels like a mental fantasy, because when I am there, it feels as though time doesn’t move as fast.
Charlie Watson, the first owner of Watson Laminates, was a big influence in my career. Learning from him made my time at the company much more enjoyable.
I would describe myself as fun, active and accelerated, but my coworkers would describe be as fun and disastrous!
I’ve always been taught that you have to work hard for what you want in life, so

This event is sure to have the entire neighborhood talking.

This is one of the first questions I ask myself before buying tickets to any family event. There are so many different things to consider when planning a family event, from prepping strollers, to packing lunches, but that’s a story for another post. I’m talking about Jurassic Quest, one of the biggest dinosaur animatronic fairs in the world.
From January to March
Jurassic Quest Tours around the United States.
Ok let’s get right to it. Let’s begin with the price, which is one of the first things people think about when planning a family outing.
Jurassic Quest Prices
One of the things that you will notice while looking at the Jurassic Quest website is that it shows parking price is $10 and you can’t buy parking with the admission tickets. With prices for adults (13 years and older) at $22 per person and VIP kid bands that include most activities at a cost of $36 each.
Real Cost
Upon arrival I was surprised to find out that parking was now $15 instead of the $10 shown on their website. I purchased 2 adult tickets from the Jurassic Quest website and after the processing fees the tickets went from $44 to $54 then I found a deal on Groupon (searched ‘Jurassic Quest’) for $40.80 for 2 adult tickets, and another deal for $61.20 for 2 VIP Kid Passes. For a grand total of $171 for 4 adults and 2 kids, along with parking. If I would have bought all the tickets straight from Jurassic Quest’s website I would have paid $193.
I was actually surprised at how many activities there were to do and with the VIP band my kids got to do everything that they wanted as many times as they liked.
Fossil Dig
My two young Paleontologists had so much fun excavating fossils. Unearthing million year old secrets just like real paleontologists!
Dinosaur Rides
My kids really liked riding the huge T-Rex dinosaurs. There are about 3 different dinosaur rides where the kids get to ride on the dinosaurs’ backs.
Bounce Houses
Once at the bounce house section, I could barely pull my kids away. The lines to each bouncer varies from 5 minutes all the way to about 20 minutes. There are designated bouncers for kids under 2 years old, but all kids must have socks.
Dinosaur Crafts
We sat down and enjoyed the free crafts with the kids. My kids had the option to create their own paper dinosaur or to choose from a variety of coloring pages.
Science Station
My kids made their very own plaster fossil mementos to take home. But I must admit, I was disappointed that they only had 1 science station
Baby Dinosaurs
Both kids enjoyed the Baby Dinosaur show, which consists of 3 ventriloquial baby dinosaur figures. The adults on the other hand, found the show a bit boring, and lacked a back story.
So Was Jurassic Quest Worth $156?
It Totally Was
After spending the day at Jurassic Quest with my kids and their grandparents, I must say it was absolutely worth the experience that my kids were fortunate to have. Yes, the event does have it’s flaws like anything else, it’s not perfect. But I will totally be back next year!

Did you ever wonder what it would be like to walk amongst dinosaurs?
Thanks to technology and the huge advances that we’ve made through animatronics we can finally see and feel what it would be like.
There’s something for everyone in the family to enjoy.
Seniors can see what they only thought was possible in our imagination, now it’s brought to life.
The kids will enjoy feeding the baby dinosaurs and ridding on the back of a huge life size T-Rex, not to mention the many activities that will keep inspiring their creativity.
This event is sure to have the entire neighborhood talking.

How did I realize that the new Tesla Model 3 was not for me? Well after shopping around for the best deal, I was able to get the best deal ever. The deal I got was $7,500 down, upon receiving the new Tesla Model 3 and I could return it for a full refund within 7 days or 1,000 miles. I was so exited to receive my new Tesla Model 3. I couldn’t wait to drive around in it.
Lucky for me, my Tesla Model 3 arrived a day before my family reunion. After some intensive math and mile crunching I came to the conclusion that if I minimized my travel, I could do the trip just under the 1,000 miles. The total trip would take approximately 980 miles (enough to return it if I wasn’t happy with it).
The
Complete silence. No matter how fast you drive, the car is so quiet it’s impressive (compared to gas cars).
The technology in the car is so far advanced that it’s difficult to go back to a simple luxury car.
Sentry mode alarm system is like what you saw in the movies as a kid.
No more smelling gasoline fumes at the gas stations.
The
The amount of time it takes to charge the battery can range from 40 minutes all the way to 2 hours. Depending on whether there’s someone else charging next to you and how full you want your battery.
You can’t take a shorter route if you’re taking a road-trip. You have to travel through the areas that have the Superchargers or risk ending up with no charge.
Charging at 120v is super slow so forget about charging at a friends house, you’ll be in for a rude awakening if you arrive with only 5-10% charge and the nearest Supercharger is 15-20% away.
