I had not set foot in the car all week but decided I should probably get out and explore the area.

Last month as we were driving along the Coast Highway we came across a temple and wondered what it was. A clerk in the Art Gallery in Del Mar recommended that I go to see the gardens behind this temple, which was called the Self Realization Fellowship Hermitage and Meditation Gardens. It was a very peaceful garden with secluded areas where people were meditating.もっと詳しく

Googlemaps predicted it would take 30 minutes to get to Balboa Park but the GPS took me straight through the city as I had directed it to avoid the I-5. An hour and 45 minutes later I arrived at Balboa Park! On the return trip I did take the I-5 and was home in 30 minutes. The traffic flow came to an abrupt stop just as I reached my exit. Happy to have avoided that.

Balboa Park is described as "A landscape of arts and culture". Many of the buildings originated from the First World's Fair in 1915. It is home to 15 major museums, performing arts venues, gardens, and the San Diego Zoo. Because it took so long for me to get there, I didn't have time to go inside any of the museums. It was crucial that I leave the city before rush hour.もっと詳しく

Although I had good intentions of exploring more, the trip to Balboa Park ended that endeavour. I spent the rest of the week much as I had the previous week....walking about town, to the farmers market, and along the beach. It was a perfect 2 weeks of stress-free living :)

Look! See Betty read! Shocking, isn't it? :Pもっと詳しく

Moving day, a mere 25 km north to Carlsbad where I had booked a studio unit at the Hilton Mar Brisa Resort. What a major let down! A kitchen with only a microwave and bar fridge; no ocean view; paper thin walls; and noisy neighbours both beside and above me.もっと詳しく

The pool and landscaping at the resort is beautiful but the weather has been too cool for swimming (62 degrees). Next door to the resort is Legoland, an amusement park. GS would have loved this place 25 years ago!

I attended the Manager's reception and won a door prize....a bottle of California chardonnay and a free appetizer at a local Mexican restaurant :)もっと詳しく

The past 2 days I've been exploring the neighbourhood. More big hills to climb but the area is very pretty. Costco is a l/2 hour walk, as is the Premium Outlet Mall. On my route was The Flower Fields, a 50 acre garden of Giant Ranunculus on a hillside overlooking the Pacific Ocean. The attraction opens on March 1st and today it looked like they still had a lot of planting to do. One field has the American flag made with red, white and blue petunias.

When I returned to the resort I joined a wine tasting event that I was invited to by the Reservations Manager because of a mix-up in my reservation. Saved me $8 and the small group of 9 was fun, even though I was the odd number!もっと詳しく

Today I walked to the nearby Museum of Making Music. It was founded by the National Association of Music Merchants so the focus was on the history of the manufacturing of instruments. Each of the 5 small galleries featured historic milestones, popular music and instruments of those eras. It was presented very nicely with lots of hands-on features. The admission fee was only $5 so it was an inexpensive way to spend a couple of hours.もっと詳しく

On my walks I always passed a huge building with the name GIA that had security officers posted at the entrance. My curiosity led me to Google the name and I learned that it was the Gemological Institute of America. They offer free guided tours so I reserved a spot. The GIA developed the international system for grading diamonds. Besides being an education institution for gemologists, they also train the FBI on how to identify stolen jewels and they offer an analysis and grading service to the general public. It was very interesting. There were exhibits on gems, as well as a special gallery showing of agate sculptures by a world renowned sculptor.

Then it was back to business as today was moving day. My next destination was Laguna Beach, 75 km north on the I-5. I dread driving on that highway! When Alyssa drove the I-5, I came home with a migraine. I watch the news every evening and I've begun calling the I-5 the "death-a-day freeway". The drive went smoothly though until I got to Laguna Beach and couldn't find the resort. My loveable GPS took me to Pacific Coast Highway North instead of South.もっと詳しく

My new home is on the 2nd floor of an older building, as all are in Laguna Beach, but it has been well maintained. It's an unusual layout with a long, narrow kitchen, living and dining area. The dining table is collapsed against one wall as there is a murphy bed on the opposing wall. The location of the condo is great because it's in the centre of town except it's on a hill top.

As expected, I was not assigned an ocean view unit as owners get priority. Instead I am facing the Pacific Coast Highway which has lots of traffic day and night. The speed limit is supposed to be 35 mph but that seems irrelevant to most drivers. I do have a huge balcony with a large BBQ that I may or may not use. Sitting on the balcony watching cars and trucks whiz by does not sound too appealing. I am in a corner unit so I do have a partial ocean view from one side of the balcony. It certainly isn't ideal but it is comfy.もっと詳しく
