As you can tell, we found a lot to enjoy in San Diego. But the real star in southern California, the element that makes everything else possible, is the beautiful Pacific Ocean and its many faces... |
|
|
|
 |
|
| ...enjoying an impromptu relaxed picnic along the shore at Pacific Beach (get all the fixin's at the Ralphs Supermarket on Mission Blvd -- it's a great deal!)... |
|
|
|
|
|
 |
|
|
....find out why Pacific Beach is one of the top surfing beaches in America, and get a great workout swiming through some major waves... |
|
|
|
|
 |
|
| ...enjoy a majestic view up the coast from Cabrillo Point. If you are as lucky as we were, you may get to hear the mournful wail of distant bagpipes as a lone Scotsman stands below you on the rocks with his back to America and his song blends with the wind and the waves... |
|
|
|
|
|
 |
|
|
...explore the ecological treasures of Torrey Pines where plant and animal life, rock formations, canyons, welands and beaches all tell an unending story of the interplay between land and sea... |
|
|
|
|
 |
| ...visit the nearby glider port where for $120 you can soar like a bird over Black Beach. |

As the sun set over San Diego Bay on the last night of our trip, we were all in agreement -- San Diego is a great place for a couple of regular guys and their wives! |
