San Diego's a Gas

San Diego by far has the nicest nightlife area that I've been to. Philly's Olde City has charm but not so much class. New York swings the other way. The Gaslamp Quarter in downtown San Diego manages to combine these two qualities with a young crowd to make it a fun place to be. It was rather surprising though to see a college dominated club scene feature so many clubs with $20 cover charges. I also managed to catch my first club fight with one guy even swinging a metal trash can at the other guy's head. But of course any night needs to start with dinner.



Day 2 was about exploring San Diego's seaside, so off we headed to La Jolla, a seaside town north of downtown San Diego. Talk about picturesque, a walk along La Jolla Cove brings you face to face with steep cliffs, rock pools, ladies with dogs, white sand, flowers in bloom, and of course crystal blue water. But, as they say about a thousand words...







And of course the best part is that I finally got to wear my Hawaii shirt!!!



And for the ladies out there planning weddings, you may want to consider this



The Famous Five aren't the only ones who can clamber around in caves during high tide waiting for smugglers to come in. I found me one too.



And before leaving La Jolla, everyone's got to catch the sea lions that bask out by Children's Pool Park.

It looks like you are making love to that piece of rock--not so much Hercules. Shoulda worked on your expression.
