This morning, our party of five ventured down to San Diego for the day. It was only about 1 1/2 hours, but the boys welcomed a pit stop at the closed outlet mall to burn some energy. They had fun climbing on the kiddie rides and didn't know to ask us for quarters :) We then continued on to the Torrey Pines Glider Port in La Jolla to watch the paragliders launch along the cliffs. They were so close to us!! Next on the agenda was Mission Beach's Wave House for lunch in the sand and watching the surfers ride the mechanical waves. Eating out with kids is always tough, but it helped a little that they could play next to the table in the sand (when Logan wasn't eating it...)
Our next adventure was finding a mellow beach. We ended up back at the beach below the gliderport. It was a tough hike down (so much so that I didn't even take pictures of the kids or the "danger, closed, don't go this way" signs!) But once down there, the beach was beautiful and not crowded! Though after a mere few seconds, we realized this was not a beach for kids! I think we all noticed it at the same time..."oh - that guy's not wearing a swimsuit! Or that guy...or....wait a second...." It was a nude beach!! I asked a lifeguard for the part of the beach where people wear clothes...thankfully, it wasn't too much further down.
Everyone went in the water and jumped in the waves :)
We capped off the day with a visit to Stone Brewing & Bistro for dinner and a walk through their gardens. Lots of sun and sand today :)
