Much to our surprise, the Pilot announced that it was 19 in San Diego but the wind was brisk! We arrived in layers of clothing (it was snowing on the drive to airport) which we did not discard for two days. It was amazing how cold we were until Friday! Finally warmed up Friday morning.
Barb found a cute hotel in Little Italy called the Porto Vista which allowed us to walk everywhere... Downtown, the sea walk, Seaport Village, etc. The hotel had a decent dining room with lovely view of the bay. She treated Lynne to The Lion King as a birthday present and the show was fantastic . The woman who designed the costumes received a Tony Award for them and did she deserve it!
Only took the public transit one day--to the famous San Diego Zoo where we took a double decker bus on a grand tour and rode the Skyfari. Both were fantastic!! Also saw Old Town--not bad - where we had a dreadful Mexican meal.
We had a wonderful Italian dinner in Little Italy and also discovered a Farmers´Market a block from our hotel on our departure day. There is nothing like strolling through a street market sampling the goodies!
Barb loves San Diego. So does Lynne.
