I wanted/needed a little getaway so Mike and I did a little overnighter to San Diego. We had bought a fun pass earlier in the year so that is where we started our day...
Going in and being greeted by a giant pumpkin fish!!
Our usual pose as we came in where they take your picture then try to get you to buy one.
Love the critters all around
This is why we came back... Turtle Reef was open.
Turtles everywhere!!! Very cool exhibit..
Then to the Sea Lion show... It was hilarious... there was a Sea lion there that wasn't suppose to be so they ad libbed through their little skit. Very funny!
More critters...
Love this spot
Pumpkin fish everywhere!
Cute!
Ideas for the backyard... wonder if this will grow in Arizona?!?
Cool succulants
Can you tell Mike was SO excited to pose for this picture... I wanted him to sit here cuz his shirt was red and there were these cool little flowers the same color as his shirt! What a good sport!
One of our favorites... the skyride!!
I got to hold a starfish again!!! More than one time this year!!!
Giant candy!! Yum!!
We couldn't leave Sea World without a waffle cone!!
We stayed at the Hacienda in Old Town. We love Old Town and this place was great! Lots of atmosphere!
Then we walked to one of the MANY Mexican Restaurants in San Diego... really they are everywhere and even right next to each other. This one was recommended to us and it was great.
YUM... good food and good decor and...
great music!
So it's like 9:00 at night now... normally we would be fast asleep in bed (it's an old people thing)... but I booked us a spot on the Ghost Tour. I wanted to do something Halloweeny!!
This tour was so fun and very entertaining. Don't have too many pictures cuz it was DARK everywhere we went! We got on the tour bus and drove to several "haunted" places around Old Town while our Storyteller told history and ghost lore...
This was our storyteller. She was awesome... she never stopped telling us stories the whole entire time even while we were driving from place to place. No script... she knew her stuff.
Ha! She looks kinda scarey here ... but she was just telling another story and my camera caught this pose... she was really very pretty!
Oh no!!! when we got back on the bus there were spiders everywhere!!!
So after our late night out we got a good nights sleep so we could get up and go shopping! We just walked down the street to one of the little street fairs...
Ha! a store wth just Jerky and Root beer! love it!
My skeleton friend!
Can't leave Old Town without a waffle cone!!! yeah... we LOVE waffle cones... we have to have one almost everywhere we go!!
Such a fun trip ... and we did it all with just backpacks...we are getting good at packing light. Thanks Mike for an awesome fun time!!!
