Another San Diego day



Today is our biggest bike trip so far.  It is the round trip of about 26 miles from our spot at Mission Bay to Hotel Coronado.  The wonderful thing about riding a bike in San Diego, on the waterfront is there are no hills.  However that does not help the sore bum at the end of the day!

Coronado on the sea is a truly picturesque spot. White sand surround the hotel area, and the town has only small stores and a European/American/surf appeal to it--quite unique. 

The flowers, and landscaping seem to be a "keep up with the Jones's" mentality on small lots with beautiful old homes.

The USS Midway.  At one time the world's largest aircraft carrier.
Now it is part of the US park system!
The tour of it is amazing and takes you back to many important historical
events that this carrier and its aircraft were part of.
 
 
We arrived back home just before dark with "bike bums".
 Ade took a break, while I decided to go to Best Buy to purchase a new
electronic toy. 
 
It is called a Chromecast and is only available in USA.  For $35 it
is the best deal around.  It integrates your phone to your Television
and allows you to watch internet tv at no cost.  I thought I would give
it a try.
