A Foggy Morning

The secret of a good life is to have the right loyalties and hold them in the right scale of values.

foggyThis is what it looked like Monday morning. It had actually been more dense earlier but this was the scene when I finally thought about taking a picture. It really wasn’t so bad. It was kind of awesome. The good thing is that I knew it would blow off. How did I know? The weatherman said it would. You know how right the weathermen always are.

Actually it did blow off … right on schedule. It was a lazy day just like we want most of them to be. We spent some time checking the area out a bit. We also needed a few little things so into town we went.

The main street in Coronado is absolutely darling. A lot of touristy shops line the road as well as cafes and little restaurants. Almost all of these have outside seating. I love eating at little cafes and especially when you can sit outside and watch all the people.carboat

There weren’t quite so many people out on Tuesday since Monday was a holiday. A lot folks had to go back to work. We went to the Embarcadero and the Seaport Village. Actually, it was really nice to be able to find a parking spot and not have to fight the people.

The harbor was filled with many types of boats and Navy ships. There were a lot of tour boats including this one that starts as a tour on land then ends up as a tour boat. We didn’t do it but the car/boat was sure interesting.

It was a huge cruise ship. We’ve been on several cruises but much prefer the smaller more intimate type of ships. Oh well, that’s another day and another blog.

Much of what we scouted out we want to return to including the Midway and some of the museums. It was busy. It was fun. We’re having a great time.

There’s so much to do and so much to see. And, without Sabrina that nearly 20 pounds I lost might be found! Oh oh.
