2012 Adventure # 2: San Diego

My parents were in San Diego in early to mid March.  Not too far a flight and prices were decent so I figured, why not?  The result:  I spent five days in a great town enjoying good company, amazing food, spectacular breweries, vibrant culture, and gorgeous scenery.  


View of the statue of Cabrillo (the first European to step foot on the  Left Coast) set against the Pacific at Point Loma.

Every Sunday at 2pm there's a free organ concert in Balboa Park. 

Generally speaking, zoos depress me.  The San Diego Zoo is a rare exception.  

This is a Red Panda....didn't know these existed until I visiting the zoo.  

Polar Bear feeding time! 

Interesting tree at the zoo
