Moiya and David in San Diego and at Point Loma

Hello,

We got up to Point Loma and saw the statue of Cabrillo. The view was spectacular. We were able to see Coranodo Island, the Pacific Ocean all around the light house, San Diego, the harbour, many sailing vessels, a VERY LARGE container ship, and some small boats that might get crushed by the other ships if they got in the way. At certain times of the year you are able to see the whales too.

They closed all the doors to the many museums up there at 5 PM. It was starting to get dark.

As we were going back down the hill towards San Diego, I saw the most brilliant show of lights on one of the streets we passed. I exclaimed, "You must turn back Brandon!" I took a lot of pictures.

Several of the homes have dedicated the rooms with windows at the front of their homes to decorations ... so if you can just imagine how it might look to ... see a three dimesional picture with a frame around it; the window being the frame and they had Mr. & Mrs. Santa claus at work in the shop with all sorts of other elves, bears, etc that were all animated.

You could also see the lights of San Diego in the background as we were still at the top of Point Loma. Absolutely incredible!

Sarah and Curtis have been down in Lethbridge with Dan and Marina. I think they go to Medicine Hat on Sunday. They will then come back to Lethbridge when their immigration papers arrive on Monday or Tuesday. It will then be time to start their journey back to their new home in Fort Polk. You should see the beautiful homes on some of the bases here in San Diego. Tthey don't even look like a base. They are just in the communities.

It only got to 63 degrees today.

Love,

Moiya and Dave

  1. My aunt's and uncle's are leading such interesting retired lives. I look forward to me joining these exciting adventures sometime down the road when I too can retire! Keep having fun and enjoying new places.

  2. Re travelling, I have been out researching the soft-drink package that comes with the cruises. Greg and Wyona signed on and told Moiya, yes -- so nice to have a soft-drink available whenever you want one.

    I am going to have to sign up to the "water" package -- but since I am committed politically to drinking tap water whenever it is available, and have no taste for pop. Still I think I am going to join someone who goes on the next cruises, the couples are making it sound so interesting.
