Beaches




Today was an absolutely beautiful day. Temps in the upper 70s and mostly clear skies. We drove down to La Jolla and meandered along the ocean. Lots of people out enjoying their Saturday. La Jolla is pretty cool with lots of rock cliffs. We saw some seals as well as people snorkeling. Later, we parked at the north end of Pacific Beach to watch all the kite boarders and wind surfers, which was really fun.


We got on the bikes and rode the boardwalk down to the heart of Pacific Beach to find some lunch. Then we continued south on the boardwalk all the way down to the end of Mission Beach. Wow, what a lot of people! Playing on the beach, surfing, biking, roller blading, skate boarding, partying, sunning, etc. It was great people watching. On the way back we stopped at the Pacific Bean coffee shop to share one of their Acai Bowls. It was acai flavored ice cream with granola, bananas, strawberries, and blueberries. Very tasty!


The last thing we did was drive up to Soledad Mountain for the great views. You can see practically all the way to Mexico and as far north as Dana Point. It was a bit hazy, but not too bad. Arrived back at out townhouse in time to see a really good sunset. Wow, it was a good day...
