Today was our first full day in San Diego. After a Starbucks run, we attempted to go to Mission Beach. Cool town, but we couldn’t find parking ANYWHERE (Labor Day Weekend again), So we got back on the road and went to La Jolla instead. La Jolla was even nicer. We went to the beach for a couple hours until we couldn’t stand the heat anymore (water here was nicer though).
After the beach we walked around the town for awhile and stopped to have lunch (and watch the end of the Mets game).
That night we went to dinner at a place called Visions which, we know, sounds like a strip club, but had really great food. They had Cakebread wine on the menu, so we got a bottle to cheers to our last night.
After dinner we got a ride home on a pedi cab. Larry sweet talked our driver into letting him drive for a bit, which he did until he crashed into almost hit a parked car. He also talked to the driver all about his life in NY and in finance and, alas, the driver ended the night by ripping us off.
When we got back to the hotel we went to the W Hotel bar for a couple drinks, which is an outdoor bar made out like a beach (read: lots of sand). Then it was off to bed!
Pics from Day 9 are here.
