11/21/15 San Diego Revisited

Being foot loose and fancy free, we head back to San Diego for a month to hang out with Jack whose stay has been extended as he is assigned to Legal School after finishing Division Officer School.  The Admiral Baker RV Park is in a canyon where we see coyotes and deer, John walks to the Golf Course and Deb makes new friends with Peggy and John from Snoqualmie, Washington.  

We capture Jack for several dinners and boogy board trips to Breakers Beach where the waves are awesome but just about more than we are willing to ride.  Deb LOVES to boogy board, screaming with glee as she rides the waves.

John's Shirt "Working On My Bucket List"

We meet up with young newlywed friends from Virginia, Kyle (Marine stationed in San Diego) and Erin for dinner, a fun afternoon exploring Balboa Park, and an evening volunteering at the USO to serve Thanksgiving Dinner to needy military families. Also caught up with JoeDe J. for a tour of Girl Scout Headquarters and a nice walk around Balboa Park.  
Mission Trails Park

A few minutes up the road is Mission Trails Park where we take wonderful sunset hikes on several of the peaks and where Deb takes a "tracker" hike and learned lots about wildlife signs on the trail.  We attend a Park concert of unusual instruments playing very beautiful music.  The instruments played are the Array mbira and handpan. 

La Jolla Shores
Driving the truck onto the La Jolla Shores Beach to launch the kayak was a site.  On a perfectly warm, calm day we kayak out to the sea caves.  Only days later a full moon "king tides" flooded this area with massive surf!
