Earthquake Avoided...Barely

At 25 weeks pregnant, we had a fantastic babymoon (translation = vacation prior to birth of baby) in San Diego. We made it back to Lincoln this afternoon - left San Diego just in time to miss out on the excitement of a 7.2 earthquake that originated in Baja California (Mexico), but based on the internet, was certainly felt in San Diego.

But, I digress...

Our first day in San Diego included some education for me, as we took a trolley tour around the city - twice. The first time around, we got off the trolley for several stops, including Coronado Island (to see Hotel Del Coronado and Coronado Beach), Balboa Park and the Midway (a retired naval ship). On our way to Coronado Island, we crossed the famous Coronado Bridge and were actually able to get a glimpse of the hills of Mexico (a mere 12 miles from San Diego).

Here are a few pictures from Day 1 (Thursday, April 1) in San Diego. Details on Day 2 to follow soon...
