Our drive today was gorgeous – again! Driving down the Pacific Coast Highway, and finding our way to a hotel in Old Town San Diego. The hardest thing we did today was try to decide what we would do tomorrow. It looks like an amphibious tour bus, and the zoo tour won out.
The weather has been just amazingly perfect. Just warm enough so that shorts feel right.
We spent the weekend driving a mini-van (hauling equipment, it made it easier) Now that Jon is gone, we scaled down… we wanted to get a Dodge Neon – it was the cheapest, one, and looked fine… but the lady talked us into a free upgrade (just had to pay a little more for insurance) She was training this guy, and wanted to show him how to do all this stuff… anyway, we got this Chrysler Concord – and it is huge. It is sort of a pain to drive, and park – but it handles well, and is really comfortable. Its just so honkin big… actually it feels bigger than the van (I think it actually might be longer.)
We slept in today, and just sort of chilled getting ready, packing up, and then shipping out of our place in LA.
The place we are staying tonight is a big improvement over our “economy” place we had been staying. It is a beautiful big room, with a sitting room etc. The Haciendo Hotel… It is sort of up on a hill overlooking the Old Town (the place where San Diego was first established)
Mom called just before the sunset – Maria was going to bed, and she thought she would let us say good night. It is interesting how cell phones and the internet really make the world so much smaller. We could chat on the phone with no problem – even though we were out in the middle of San Diego – just roaming around
As soon as we got here, we dropped off our luggage, and walked up to a nearby park to watch the sunset. We sat in a patch of purple flower things - it was nice. After Cold Stone Ice cream, some souvenir shopping, we just walked around for a while. We are having a great – and relaxing time. A great chance to celebrate 10 great years together.
