Our trip to the West Coast was pretty awesome. Got into San Diego on time and the weather was just fantastic: 76 degrees and sunny. We had quite a bit of frustration waiting at the Avis car rental counter. There was a huge long line and only 2 people helping. This lead to almost an hour wait just to get into our rental vehicle (They really do care...)
Our hotel room wasn't ready yet so we headed off to Tofu House with PP's MBA classmate for some lunch. After lunch, we checked into our room at Travel Lodge and were pleasantly surprised. We had read some nightmarish stories of conditions at Travel Lodges, but this one was clean and organized. After changing into some shorts and a T-Shirt, it was off to the beach to see some pregnant seals. They were rather.....unimpressive and mostly just laid there basking in the sun. The view was fantastic though as we walked up and down the beaches near La Jolla. After the beat, we went to see Old Town which was a replica of the classic original settlement point for California. The highlight of Old Town was a candy shop where I ended up splurging on salt water taffy and assorted chocolate and fudge. We ended the day by walking around the harbor while viewing a random assortment of stuff including skateboarding chicken, rock balancing, singing parrots, and even an aircraft carrier!
