I’ll recap the highlights of our weekend in San Diego before it fades into oblivion… Rather than driving there, this time we drove to my office, walked to the subway station, took the Red Line to Union Station, and took the Amtrak Pacific Surfliner to San Diego. All in all, it was a pleasant trip, with some great ocean views as we got closer to our destination.

After dropping off our bags and checking in, we visited the Maritime Museum in the afternoon and enjoyed dinner in Little Italy at night.

On Sunday, I spent the morning taking photos around the Gaslamp, after which Aimee I did some more exploring in the neighborhood, full of majestic buildings and hundreds of restaurants.

We stopped for lunch at The Field, and headed to PETCO Park for the Padres – Nationals game. We lasted ten innings, but the game lasted eleven; we heard the cheer of victory as we walked back to the hotel.

We ate at a busy Thai restaurant in the Gaslamp that evening and marveled at the huge number of restaurants, as well as the massive throngs of people, throughout the neighborhood. We headed home the next morning, refreshed from a weekend away.
