Pictures of the day

Second entry today.. if you didn't see the first, click on the word "previous"

Woot! We had a good time today! After we took Poolie lunch, we came back to my house to drop off all the luggage that was in the car. It was decided to just go drive around and see what came up.

We went back down to the harbor, because Winnie really wanted to see the aircraft carrier that was down there. It was actually the ship, MIDWAY, and these are two of the pictures I took of it.

(especially for you, bluesleepy)

The kids clowned around a bit with some statues that were part of a memorial to Bob Hope:

They were thirsty, so they both had a margarita. They said it tasted like there was pretty much tequila in it! I was driving, so I just had a soda. We went through all the shops in Seaport Village and they had a blast! I thoroughly enjoyed it too!

Then it was off to the island of Coronado. Kid wanted to see sunset on the beach... well, she wanted tequilas on the beach, too.. but that was pretty hard to make happen. She was happy with this though....

We got home, and I made them an omelette because they were starving! And now it's 10, and they are already in bed. Travel and walking had taken it's toll.... but I'm sure they will be ready to roll in the morning!

Kiss Me!

I would like to go to the beach, myself! Kid looks happy - and she looks a lot like you :) I hope that she sees how much better you are there, and takes it to heart. At the very least, looks like she's taking "good times" to heart, LOL!

great photos! i wish i had photos of Ben's ship on my flickr page that i could email to you. his ship was decommissioned in 1998 (i believe) and i'm pretty sure that they opted to use it as a coral reef.

I told my husband that I want to visit Cali next summer before my son goes to college. I think he's afraid that I'll overcome my anxiety about hot winds and earthquakes and actually want to move there. *grins*

My uncle was stationed on the MIDWAY. Mom stayed with her sis while he was away, and they got a private tour when he returned. I would love to go there!
