San Diego... in a DAY!

On friday, my friend lynnsi and i decided that we wanted to go to San Diego, so we hopped on a plane and spent the day in perfect weather and even more beautiful scenery. We took the public bus from the airport to downtown and walked around the outdoor mall and some other parts of the gas lamp district (and we used cute hotels for their bathrooms). After that we decided that we wanted to take the ferry to Coronado. So we bought a round trip on the ferry and set off for beautiful beaches and the ocean.
When we got to coronado, we got some amazing greek food and layed on the beach for a little while. We relaxed and enjoyed the slightly cooler temperatures!!! about an hour before we needed to head back to the airport we decided that we wanted to see the ocean, instead of just the San Diego Bay, although beautiful, one of the reasons we went to SAN was to see the ocean. So we took the bus to the other side of the island to Hotel Del Coronado and spent some time on the white beaches by the ocean. We decided that we didnt have enough time to make it to the ferry so we took the city bus back to the mainland. (while on the bridge back to SAN, we were so close to the edge, I was boarderlining hyperventilation while we were traveling over it. While I dont have problems with airplanes, heights send me into a heart palpitating FIT!) After we switched buses, we were on our way to the airport and making perfect time, until the bus driver didnt stop at our last stop!!!! In a panic we got off on the next stop and ran across the street to the commuter terminal to get on the terminal to terminal shuttle. We checked in at 35 minutes to departure and did everything we could to cut lines in security!!! (for those of you who have worked in the airline business, you understand what 35 minutes to departure usual means) This was the last flight of the night and we HAD to be home tonight. So we ran through the terminal and made it to our flight just in the nick of time... we almost missed it!!!! it was a crazy experience and a crazy rush, but we had soooo much fun!!! i hope that lynnsi and i can go somewhere again soon!!!!!!

ENJOY!
