La Jolla

Thursday was another great day in CA. We started out with lunch at In-N-Out in San Diego. Then headed up the road to La Jolla. This community is both chic and conservative, wealthy Rodeo-Drive-meets-the-Mediterranean community surrounded by beach and boasts outstanding restaurants and pricey shopping in "the village". The scenic spot that appears on most postcards was stunning La Jolla Cove. And the cliffs above the cove hold grassy Ellen Browning Scripps Park, a perfect spot for Trevor's diaper change and bottle. We had dinner Thursday evening back in San Diego at Sushi Bar Kazumi. This was a tiny cafe. The owner and his son oversee the sushi bar. Tonya had the sushi. I figured raw fish was not a good idea for Trevor, so we tried one of their regular meals.

Trevor watching the seals who hang out at Children's Pool Beach, a tiny cove originally named for the toddlers who could safely frolic behind a manmade seawall. These days, the sand is mostly off-limits to humans, who congregate along the seawall railing or onshore to admire the protected seals who sun themselves on the beach or on semi-submerged rocks. You can get surprisingly close-truly a mesmerizing sight.

Faye's (Matt's Mom) parents bought this property in La Jolla, CA for a spot to come during the cold Nebraska winters.

Sweetheart - these really are great pictures! So glad you had a great time and Trevor was a doll to be with as you and your friend hung out together.
