Out and About

Wednesday the 24th

Tina is feeling much better today so we decided to go for a drive after lunch. We headed out of Chula Vista and drove through Bonita and on up to Sweetwater County Park. From there we continued out into the hills before turning around and pointing the car towards San Diego.

We came down out of the hills and hopped on the CA-54 fwy, merging onto I-5, then cutting over to Coronado Island on CA-75 which sweeps up and over San Diego Bay and ends up at the Navy Base at the north end of the island. This is a view of San Diego from the bridge.

We turned around and drove back into the town of Coronado where we passed the old Coronado Hotel, followed the coast road along the beaches north of town, then toured some of the residential areas before heading back across the island to the "Old Ferry Shopping Center". Once we found a parking spot we parked the car and spent an hour just walking around before Tina said it was time to go home.

Back in the car again, we headed southwest towards town where we got on CA-75 south along the peninsula towards the city of Imperial Beach. Driving through Imperial Beach we passed another really nice RV Resort before reaching I-5 and heading north towards home.

All in all we had a very nice afternoon.
