San Diego--Part Four

On Monday, I had to start attending the National Postal Forum (it's amazing how when your company flies you someplace for work, they expect you to actually work). So my mom watched Kate, and they had fun swimming, going to shops, and eating in some outdoor cafes. On Monday, I had a break for lunch, so they came and met me at the convention center, and then we walked to Seaport Village, which was just a couple blocks away, right on the ocean. We ate at this delicious little Mexican walk-up place, and then Kate & I rode the carousel together. It was her first time, and she loved it! She was just laughing and bouncing up and down on the horse. She had such a great time.

In fact, that night, we went back to Seaport Village for dinner (this time we ate at Bubba's and had some amazing coconut shrimp and macadamia nut-crusted chicken) and then we looked in some shops in the area. Kate got excited when she saw the carousel again, so we decided to ride it again.

On Tuesday, we headed to Old Town for dinner and had the best Mexican food EVER. Hands down. It was amazing. We tried a fish taco, since everyone was raving about those, and it was totally worth it. Sooooo good. Then we each had enchiladas (one beef, one chicken) and those were killer. And of course the margaritas were good, too.

Then on Wednesday I just had to go to my conference in the morning, and then I came back to the hotel, we packed up, headed to the Brewery for lunch, and then to Currant for dessert. We got to the airport in plenty of time and our flight to Salt Lake was smooth and relatively quick. Kate slept the whole time, which is always nice!


She had to have a bath Sunday night since she was so sandy from Coronado Beach




At lunch on Monday


Kate loves the carousel!


She looks kind of mad; probably because she has to wait to get sunscreen on before she can go in the sun/pool


With Nana at lunch on Tuesday; I had a press lunch, so I couldn't meet them


This was the cutest little outdoor cafe; we had dessert there on Wednesday before we caught our shuttle to the airport

Our room at the Westin, although it's not the best picture; kind of dark

Some cool glass sculpture outside the Westin. Kate always seemed enthralled by this.
