San Diego at its Finest

It had been quite a while since the camera had been out of the bag and I certainly made up for it in our first day in SD alone!  We got in Friday evening and got settled and Casey, Matt's sister, drove drown from LA bright and early Saturday morning.  My dad brought home a suburban so we all piled in the car and set out for a beautiful day exploring San Diego.

First we headed across the bridge and explored the beautiful scenery around the Hotel Del Coronado.  It is the first time I have been to a San Diego beach in so long!  It is so different than the Hawaii beaches but they are so beautiful in their own way and they always make me feel like I am home.
We weren't quite dressed for the beach or the perfect 75 degree weather but the shoes came off quickly and we made due.

You'll notice in probably every picture Zack has a grimy, white stuffed animal.  He became attached this trip an NEVER let it go..until we lost it.
 
I love this picture and the background!  After the beach we took the ferry across to downtown San Diego and got a pedicab to Seaport Village. 

Mothers and Daughters- I am a lucky girl!

With no time to waste we grabbed some authentic San Diego/ Mexican tacos at one of the restaurants.  Soooo good!!!  There were tons of entertainers and vendors and plenty of people watching to entertain us.  The kids ( and the adults) loved having Auntie Casey around.  It is so nice that she is a short drive away and we are so thankful she made the trip!

We did not bring the stroller because we figured the kids would want to walk and there would be enough hand to carry them.  So we strolled and ran and people watched all the up and down the walkway and basked in the sun while we waited for our boat back the Coronado and our car.
