Old Town, San Diego
Old Town in SD is a small strip of historic and modern stores, restaurants, and preservation learning centers. The expected tourist shops are there with nick knacks and such, and then there are also unique independent artisan shops that give Old Town a neat vibe. And I'm not a "big" shopper, so it says a lot that I keep going back :)
Coronado Beach
Coronado beach is one of the nicest beaches with fine white sand and a lovely shore line to look at. Hotel Del is quite architecturally and luxuriously impressive. The last time we were on the island we took a tour of the old and famous hotel, but this time we opted for a nice long walk on the beach.

Coronado Island Public Library
What a beautiful library with fine wood and tile finishes. Glass cases line the main corridor for exhibits and the children's area has fun paintings on frosted glass framing its entrance. It's a lovely space with an excellent collection.
California Highways
We are on 163 North in the pic below. Most highways are 5 to 6 lanes wide and merging on and off is sort of hair-raising because all of the traffic lingers on the right side waiting for their exit - ACK!
