Our main reason for visiting the city was for SBD training but the beaches distracted us big time! Opps!!!
First stop was Pacific Beach (PB). WOW!!! It’s a long strip of beach! VERY NICE! It’s got a great path for walkers, runners and cyclists overlooking the sand and water. There are many hotels, apartments and shops along the strip too so there’s no getting bored.
We didn’t have to walk too far to get to the water and the weather that day we visited was simply perfect. Not too hot, but cool with a light sea breeze. Sun was just right! Training wasn’t too far from our minds though and in honour of being Australian SBDMDK Region 1 practitioners we decided to leave a temporary mark on PB :O)
PB is great for hanging out with mates, jogging, playing volleyball, surfing and general people watching... LOL... Best of all PB would be perfect for SBD beach training ;O)
We moved on to La Jolla Beach (LJB). The scenery along this beach is so pretty!!! When we got there one of the first things we noticed were the SEALS!!! There was no getting away from their singing/ barking ...LOL ...it was an amazing sight to see the seals banked up along the beach. There’s a warning for people to keep their distance from the seals but as curiosity kills the cat, people were actually getting up close and swimming with them. There’s really no stopping craziness!
There’s beautiful flora and fauna growing along the cliffs too. It was so tempting to pick the flowers because they were so very pretty! The scenery at LJB was gorgeous and it inspired us so much that we practiced some Ki Chos on the rocks ;O) (we may never post those pictures up... haha)!
We were even treated with splashes of red and yellow sky against the horizon as the sun was setting. LOVED IT!!! Our day visiting PB and LJB was without a doubt a day well spent!!!
We also visited the famous San Diego Zoo and WOW it's HUGE!!! Elephants, Flamingos, Polar Bears and even Australia’s very own Koala have a home in San Diego Zoo. We saw PANDAS too!!! A mother and cub! That was a highlight for sure!!! The cub was sooooooooooooo cute! If you’re visiting SD check it out! We highly recommend you set aside a day to spend there because the zoo is massive and there's so much to see :O) It was GREAT!!!
Another very cool highlight to SD was seeing a bright yellow Lamborghini!!! So random!!! BUT OMG WOW!!! It was the happiest, brightest and hottest car ever!!! ;O)
San Diego has been described by locals as America’s finest city!!! :O) We totally agree! It has fine beaches, fine people and fine cars = VERY FINE CITY ;O)
Thank you to Thai SBN for encouraging us to explore San Diego and the friends at Miramar Martial Arts Academy for kindly transporting us everywhere! We really appreciate it and hope that one day we can show you our very own Darwin City :O)
