Holiday Decorations: Balboa Park, The Zoo and Extraordinary Desserts

I've been meaning to post these since they were taken last Christmas Eve and days after. I found a parking spot right in The Prado lot and while we still can pulled in to take a quick walk through the Botanical Gardens before they closed for the day. Lovely. Also went by at night and snapped some, and the San Diego Zoo lights too, very cool! We live in a wonderful city! On our way out we stopped at Extraordinary Desserts for a Cream Cheese Brownie with overtones of coffee. Really yummy. Enjoy!

Foodie Day: New Mexico Cafe to Coronado Ends at Fillippis

We drove out to Logan Ave. to beat the fog and grab a bite. Las Quatro Milpas was way too crowded to stop so we headed a few blocks down to Newton and hit New Mexico Cafe La Dona, got some food to go and then drove Coronado before being swallowed up in the fog again. We ended the day with a pizza to go at Filippis, for pizza fotos check out this past post, BOMB PIZZA! Early nap day for sure. Enjoy!





















Saturday Drive: Coronado, Gaslamp, Pioneer Park, Pringle Street (Photos)

Here's a bunch of fotos I snapped today. After the rain it was nice to get out and experience a crisp fall day.




I made the mistake of driving into Mission Valley, inspired to breeze through Ikea, not realizing a huge event was underway. So plan B, we headed out to Coronado and Gaslamp for a drive.

Had to pull over and chow on some tasty tacos at Las Quatro Milpas before heading to Coronado. Did you know they are on Facebook? I reviewd LQM on Yelp too, be sure to read the post with all the links here.

We ended the day of errands by walking the dogs through Pioneer Park to Pringle Street. Also one of my favorite modern homes is listed below. From time to time I come across homes I have admired my whole life living here in Mission Hills, this house is one of them. Love the views from that area in back of the park. There was a wedding and I couldn't resist sharing a snaps or two, so cute! Forgot my camera again so forgive my Blackberry quality. Enjoy
