Sorry, I have been away from the blog a few days, I took a long weekend vacation in San Diego. I have been to a lot of places in California, but thought this would be fun, recommend to anyone, stayed on the beach right in the middle of Pacific Beach and logged many miles on a bicycle riding the broadway and Coronado Island.

Politically, masking was lax. The only time someone told me to pull up my mask is while I was looking at a Dali in the San Diego Museum of Art, otherwise most places only require it when you walk in. As many Californians told us, ‘We are so f’ing over it!’

If you are fully vaccinated, get out, enjoy our beautiful country!

When we got to San Francisco, this was one of the first things I got to see. The friend we stayed with lived about six blocks from the beach. Since the time we were out there was considered there ‘summer’ it was actually pretty nice (but very cold water). I would usually walk down there every morning and watch the surfers.

These are ‘Snowy Plovers’ they are endangered birds, so this stretch of the beach is a habitat for them and you are not allowed to bother them (mainly with your pets). They are pretty funny because they have skinny little legs and kinda look like quails with pointy long beaks that they use to dig in the sand. When the waves come in fast instead of flying away they run really fast in a group. They reminded me of chickens.

 

Yes they surf in this freezing water. I’m sure the suit helps, but it can’t be very nice on the head and feet. Yow!

San Fran Vacation – Pfeiffer Beach – Big Sur

Big Sur National Park was closed, so we were told to go here instead. You have to drive down a very bumpy 2 mile road to get to the beach, but it is pretty surreal. There is a chemical in the sand that when it mixes with ocean water it turns the sand purple. You can see streaks of it on the beach. This beach was also a popular place for surfers and the wind. I’m spitting sand out of my mouth.
