San Diego, California

San Diego, California, is a great place to live or to visit. The weather is comfortable and there are so many things to see and to do. A relatively new feature is the waterfront sculpture. Statues are part of a yearly competition. Baseball, museums, symphony, zoo and Gaslamp District all add to the flavor of San Diego.

We made this picture of an Indian woman fountain in Balboa Park during a recent trip to San Diego, California. All of the Polaroid pictures on this lens were made by us on trips to San Diego.

Thanks for visiting. Please vote for my lens by clicking on the 5th star on the top of this page if you like this San Diego lens. Thanks a lot!

Stand on the Embarcadero with me and look out at the Pacific Ocean.

San Diego Waterfront 

Plan to spend a day walking the length of San Diego's fascinating waterfront. From the Marina at one end to the tree art project at the other end, there is a lot to see. Eat lunch at one of the many restaurants on the wharf. Tour the marine museums docked on the wharf like this old sailing vessel we photographed on our visit.
