Chris and I spent the Labor Day weekend in San Diego. Well, Chris went fishing on Saturday and then I met up with him for the rest of the weekend.
I will start out with one thought: Big Truck + Southern California = NOT FUN. Try squeezing *your* 25-foot long F-350 around a U-shaped turn designed for a mini cooper, and see if you agree. (It only took me about 15 minutes and a 20-point turn, by the wa y)
Chris caught some fishes on his trip, about 7 of them to be exact. (We need to start researching recipes for tuna!) And then, to add a sense of irony to the weekend, we spent Sunday visting Sea World, where sea life is, predictably, not killed by sport fishermen.
We saw Sea Turtles:
Non-Edible Fishes (well, you could eat them but SeaWorld kind of frowns on that in their park):
Sea Lions:
Dolphins:
AND... as a very special treat... a baby dolphin that had just been born the day before. It was less than 24 hours old.
We saw Shamu, penguins, sharks, sting rays, and a lot of other sea life, etc etc. We got to feed the sting rays and touch the pet-store variety sharks, which was fun.
SeaWorld also has a Clydesdale exhibit, which we were puzzled about for a while (umm, horses do not live in water, last I checked...) until we learned that SeaWorld is owned by Budweiser. Then it all made sense.
While in San Diego we also spent time at the beach, and managed to capture a beautiful sunset:
I could totally live there. Well, that is, if I had a smaller car.
