We've just finished a very full day of touring beaches on a leisurely coastal drive. We rented a car today but almost were out of luck as we walked on over to the nearest Avis and found out they have ZERO cars available at all their locations. (!) They were kind enough to refer us to a lesser known agency that got us sorted out, but lesson learned. We didn't book it in advance because up until now we'd been managing just fine without it and weren't really sure how many days we'd actually need it.
So we headed to Pacific Beach first and took a barefoot stroll along the shore (not deep enough for shark attack of course). Next was a jaunt, lunch (& shopping excursion) in beautiful La Jolla that was followed by yet another beach stroll in Del Mar in the evening before we finally settled down in Solona Beach. There we had a really nice dinner prior to a rock concert at the Belly-Up Tavern (voted San Diego's best music venue) with headliner "The Duke Spirit" and "Republic of Letters." (Don't worry if you've never heard of them, but they were really good.) The venue was great, the sound was terrific and the show didn't let us down. AND it was only $8/ticket including service charge. Beat that! It was an intimate setting so we really enjoyed it and the drive home didn't take much more than 20 minutes.
I've read in some emails that some of Bobbi's friends have been quite concerned that we haven't spent nearly enough time shopping, so let me just ease their minds now and say tomorrow we're headed for the outlet malls (whatever those are) and I've been told to bring something to keep myself occupied. She also said she's going with or without me.
Looks like a day-trip to Mexico is out... Sea World is in. Simplicity is ruling the day now.
Who needs sleep?
