(Eventually) Going East....


A quick update…from the Admiral’s Club in San Diego waiting for our delayed flight..

As you know, when we're travelling I try to post a few updates during the journey, but this time I have failed, but for very good reasons. It’s funny how this “vacation” turned out. In the end, it may have been the best one we’ve had here. Since this is our “Nth” trip to San Diego, by and large we have seen pretty much what there is to offer. So instead of charging here and there, we spent the majority of it just chatting with our friends, enjoying their company, actually reading books, and taking the odd nap. As I mentioned our host is a great cook, and she supplied a lot of great “in-home” meals. It’s amazing how relaxing it can be. Kind of changes your outlook some

Now I will hasten to add, we DID get out, and had some wonderful food experiences between little known, local places, some better known, and our crowning return to Tapenade for a “big deal” meal. We also had our “traditional” glass of champagne and a bite on the terrace of the Hotel Del Coronado. And with more nerve and the trusty ELPH, so there will be some photos to share. We also got in some birding, visited the Cove at La Jolla (which never gets old), and spent some time at the Zoo. Since good food never gets old (figuratively speaking), we’ll taste some samples in the next few days.. and in case you are wondering, whether we were “in” or “out” we were

 Just an amuse bouche:

Dessert "Out"




From "Costa Rico Night"; "in"
