We are home. Our fantastic San Diego vacation is over. The flight home was pretty bumpy. Three of us had queazy moments, and my step son had to make use of a barf bag. Other than that the journey home went off without a hitch.
Normally this would be the moment where I posted a few pictures, but screw that. I’m going to sleep!
Good night!
Have you ever seen the green flash? I haven’t. Only partly because the damn weather was so uncooperative this past week. We went to Mission Beach again this morning and froze. We bailed in favor of some downtown shopping but made it back to Mission Beach around 1:00pm and finally experienced the perfect southern California beach weather experience. It was beyond gorgeous.
What to do on the last full day. Probably just take it easy and relax a little. Probably spend more time at a beach. Maybe do a little souvenir shopping. No running around like crazy people from New England. Just be mellow like the locals.
Practicing, ya know, for when we become locals some day.
We finally saw surfers tonight when we took a quick stop at Ocean Beach. Is there a reason that we haven’t seen anyone surfing Mission Beach?
It’s a little difficult to wrap your head around just how huge the USS Midway is.
Of all the random planes we saw flying around while we were on the USS Midway’s flight deck, this bi-plane was my favorite.
Snoopy and his Sopwith Camel can’t be far behind.
While the USS Midway is one huge mother of an aircraft carrier, it is dwarfed by the sucker anchored across the harbor. I believe this is the USS Ronald Regan. It’s downright gigantic.
This was not affiliated with the USS Midway museum, but it was one of many helicopters that buzzed us while we were on the flight deck.
