Tuesday Jan 23, 2023 - La Jolla CA day 2

We slept inside at Beth and Joe’s and the bed was very comfy. This morning Joe had his first day volunteering at the Torrey Pine Golf Tournament (the Farmers Open) and he had to be there early, so Beth had him delivered by the time we got up. After a leisurely morning we decided to go to Balboa Park and visit the various museums there. It’s a huge park with art museums, an automobile museum, air and space museum, ComicCon museum, etc, etc. Milo split up from Beth and Deb and hit the automotive museum while the women went to the Mingei museum. You can buy a 7 day pass for $67 which we would do if we were staying that long, but we just paid for each individual museum.

Joe called earlier than we expected since it was a tournament warm up day, so we cut the museums short and drove over to pick him up at Torrey Pines. Deb and I snuck over the hill to watch the para-gliders practicing takeoffs over the bluffs overlooking the ocean. It was pretty muddy since they’d had the record breaking rain the previous day (which we drove through).

Then we all went to one of the beaches and had a lovely long walk. Back to the house for some down time and later took off for dinner at Ambrogio, a pizza place they’d been to before. After delicious pizza, salad, and drinks, we drove up Soledad Mountain to see San Diego lights, returned back to the house, and off to bed. Joe had his first long day at the golf course in the morning so needed sleep.
