Mount Saint Helens - from the air. Spectacular!
We stayed in the Little Italy part of downtown San Diego. It's a very neat part of town. Lots of great food and cafes and things to look at.
This is our hotel. I forgot to snap a photo, so this is an internet image.
This is our view from our bed in the hotel. Not much to see.
This is our yummy desert. I usually photograph our food on trips, but totally forgot this time. I kept remembering once we were finished. This is the dregs of a triple chocolate mousse cake and a matcha green tea 'shave ice' parfait. Both were delicious! Good thing we rented bicycles the next day to work off the calories. ha ha ha.
Before renting the bicycles, we rented a Harley and biked to Palm Desert to visit Pam and Lorne. Again, no pic of them or Palm Desert - what a dummy I am. It was a GREAT ride over to Palm D. Clint had found a wonderful 4 hour route that wound all around and past the Mexico border and up through several passes and canyons. Glorious weather, too.
We did come across a 'forest' fire. It might have been a controlled burn of some sort since there was no wind and also rain was expected the next day. We did see the flames - I don't think they show in the photo. There was no human presence monitoring the fire as far as we could see, but we could only see the crest of the hill and not in behind.
Below is the delivery of our bicycles. The business owner actually brings the bikes to us [this is a stock image from the internet since, again, I was too lazy to take a photo.].
