san diego: coronado and exit



this post is really out of order as it should fall on the 26th of december etc. but i have no idea how to reorder my posts and i forgot to post these pictures when i was writing about our trip...)


the last day of our trip to san diego we woke up late. it was great. we had no plans to be anywhere at all. after we checked out of our hotel, we headed to coronado island (not to be confused with catalina island which i keep calling it in my head) via a loong loong bridge. when we got to the island, we drove down the main strip and... that was it. i was rather disappointed to be honest. i was expecting something like key west or another resort/island town with cute boutiques and cafes etc. we ate a really disappointing lunch at this sandwich shop (our other choice was panera, which i love, but we try to eat at places we dont have in la while on vacation, but we both wished we had chosen panera) where the service was slow, the food was mediocre, and the people weren't very friendly, and then drove back through san diego up the 5 and home again home again lickety split. i took a couple pictures of the industrial docks and part of the bridge we drove over. we got back to la around 3 - plenty of time for grocery shopping and going to the gym. yay.
