San Diego

pAs you can tell I haven’t posted in a while and am getting used to the site again.  Anyway,  we stopped into a hotel lobby to see a concierge.  Since out time was so short he suggested a hop on/ hop off trolley we signed up and had a great tour.

First we crossed the bridge to Coronado.  The skyline in the distance isTijuana. 

  

  

We then toured Coronado.  We got off at the Coronado Hotel which is definitely stunning.  We went in to see the wood room which is entirely made of wood including the chandeliers which are in the shape of a crown.

We then reboarded the trolley to be taken to Balboa Park, Little Italy and Old Town. There is much to do in each location.  We could have easily spent a day in Balboa Park.  However time was short and we stayed on the trolley.  We got off at the stop before our hotel to walk the promenade back.

 We then went back to the hotel for some refreshments.  It was a very long day, but we were able to see a great deal of San Diego.  

We board the ship today and I don’t know when I’ll be able to post since wifi is sketchy on cruises.

I’ll leave you with a picture of the sunset from the hotel.
