Historic San Diego



We awoke in Anaheim, but we needed to be in San Diego by dinnertime for a pre-wedding karaoke party. We cruised out to San Diego in time for lunch at In-N-Out burger. I imagine the place is typically pretty busy for lunch, but it just happened that the Holiday Bowl was going on a few blocks away the same day and the place was swarming with Nebraska and Washington fans. Still, the food was fantastic and R was able to get her burger wrapped in lettuce, which was ideal.



After our burgers (and after a long search for parking spots) we checked out the Mormon Battalion Visitors Center in the middle of Historic Old City San Diego. It was really well done, and Scott was particularly enthralled by the TV-screen windows that had people come up and talk to us.











Our final destination for the evening was actually down the highway a ways in San Clemente, so we piled in the car again and Scott got to play some more Angry Birds. Unfortunately, this time the car sickness got the best of him and he did throw up. Fortunately, we found something for him to throw up into. R spends a lot of time on this trips climbing back and forth between the front seat and the back seat.

It was great to finally arrive in San Clemente for the karaoke party and see the cousins that we should have seen when we were at Disneyland the previous day. I was so moved, I broke into song.

Wow, the visitor's center has come a long way since my grandparents were directors years ago. We never got to pan for gold! Looks like the whole trip was fun. We were sad to miss it.
