san diego, part 3.


We ate at Ruby's diner, somewhere in the city.
i liked it less than Mel's. just sayin.
but the milkshakes... aaaah!

san diego, part 2.

the look on Peter's face cracks me up every time.
We visited the us midway. Cute ship. I got ww2 postcards, had tiny panic attacks in the little rooms and tiny corridors cuz of too much titanic movie watching. I also got into an awkward but funny conversation with some retired lieutenant (?. i really have no idea) who got confused when i moved around and kept changing my seats during his tour.. he did not like that! lol. No military career for me there, and later talked about my "swedish blondeness". hahaa, but he was very nice. Another lady commented on my complexion, she could tell i wasn't american. eh. Overall it was interesting, i've never been on a war-ship before.

I loved all the palm trees in the city everywhere. We went to so many museums my feet hurt at the end of the day. Loved the dinosaurs at the natural history museum (loved them. i escpeially enjoyed it cuz of the fact that they were found in california). Loved the weather and loved san diego!

My mom's story of her road trip to san diego in the 1970's beats mine though.. with a 50's cadillac with two older ladies wearing cat eye sunglasses driving from LA to san diego. I would have died from overexposure to awesomeness. I hope i'm just as cool when i'm at that age. I can't believe i missed california in the 70's. i've seen the pictures, it was wonderful.
