San Diego! Just Rose and Dave!!

Dave and I went on a trip to San Diego at the end of April!  It was the first trip away for quite a few years.  We had a ton of fun!  Our friends, the Barazza's and the Parry's met us there for a few days. 

We stayed directly across the street from the historic Hotel  Del Coronado!  The island of Coronado is amazing!  It has the most beautiful, pristine beach.   We also went to our favorite beach haunt-Pacific Beach and had breakfast on the beach at Kono's(no picture this time). Barrazza's lived in San Diego so they drove us around and took us to some of their favorite restaurant's and sites.  It was fun having a different perspective.  They also drove us all around the North Island Navy base.  Lou Barrazza is a Navy Colonel. 

 We stopped for ice cream at Baker, California-the traffic was horrible.  We saw the world's tallest thermometer.

 This statue is out at Point Loma.  The furthest southern point of the US.

 We stopped at the beach after going to the San Diego Temple.  I need to live by a beach!

 We went on a short bike ride along the boardwalk, unfortunately Dave won't be biking with his neck problems again anytime soon!

 All the gals had so much fun! We found some great seashells!  Rose, Denny B, and Cricket P.

 At the Mormon Battalion Museum they dressed Dave up like the men would have that march in the Battalion.

If you look closely on the right side of the picture in the distance you can see the San Diego LDS Temple.  It is an amazingly beautiful building.  Dave and I went and did a session while we were there.

 We all went in to Old Town and went to the Mormon Battalion Museum. 

I love, love, love the Ocean.  I would enjoy being able to visit it often.  It heals my soul.
