Uploading to the blog has proved to be a challenge from the cruise ship, where the internet is accessed through a satellite. If a picture paints a thousand words, here's 10,000 words!

After three full days at sea, we docked in San Diego on September 23rd. There's no shortage of tourist attractions in San Diego and on previous visits to this city, Dean and I have enjoyed pretty much all of them so on this trip we hopped city bus number 901 to Coronado.
The Hotel del Coronado is a state historic site. The grounds are outstanding with herb and flower gardens and a walkway along the beach.
We took the ferry back to the cruise ship harbour. It's only a ten minute transit, and it offers up some great views of the city skyline, Seaport Village and the Coronado bridge.
Trivia: Every Okanaganite remembers the fires of 2003. Did you knbow that in October 2003, wildfires in San Diego burned 280,000 acres (1,100 km), killed 15 people, and destroyed more than 2,200 homes?
Where to begin in commenting? Wow, such a variety of pictures...I think the NO Jogging sign should be placed in the empty pool, the Warning sign with the California part removed, put up where the BP Oil spill occurred and your trivia posted directly on your Facebook, so everyone is aware that we are not the only ones in this world, who have suffered such grande losses! Thanks for sharing! PS> Loved the seaside Bed companions you are keeping(-:
