I'll readily admit; my posts are mostly stream of consciousness. And sometimes; it's just better to just post photos. I needed to get my car serviced today. Instead of waiting around; I decided to catch the Trolley, something I used to enjoy, but haven't done in ages…..and just head out and take in San Diego. So; I headed off to the Little Italy Mercato, then walked down to the Tuna Harbor Dockside Market. Instead of some long-winded post; here are some photos of an overcast, yet fun day.
Because of some delays on the Green Line West; I decided to take a round about way; doing the Orange Line to Downtown; getting off at Civic Center and walking to Little Italy. Where I passed an iconic "name" in San Diego….whose commercials you couldn't miss if you lived here in the 90's and "aughts".
I'd heard that Mexican Fiesta; whose existence always reminded me of the Children's book, The Little House had closed. And yes, it has….
I think pooches outnumber children here……
I then walked on over to Seaport Village…..
Man, I haven't been around here in at least a decade….
Things looked a bit depressed; many closed businesses.
Though it's always fun to "pooch watch"……
The Dockside Market was close by; so I headed on over.
A somewhat interesting mix of folks…..
I decided to grab an Americano from here…..
And guess who I saw???
And even coming back around again while I finished my coffee.
Since it was close by; I decided to check out Unconditional Surrender by Seward Johnson.
It was an overcast day; with not too many tourists.
Just like I don't visit Waikiki when I'm back "home"; I really don't get down here to often.
I was glad to have some time on my hands to just reacquaint myself with this area.
And then of course…..it was time for lunch!
Sounds like you had a productive day seeing the sights on food..I like when it’s overcast like today was.
nice walk!
What a nice day. It almost makes me look forward to Jury Duty downtown (when I’ll get the trolley pass).
It was a fun day CC!
It was Kat!
I had a fun time Cathy.
Great deal on swordfish!
Sure is Soo!
It’s fun being a tourist in your own city. I usually do the same when I have jury duty.
Mexican Fiesta! I ate there once, I remember the food being pretty good but too salty.
I usually check out places to eat in the Gaslampo during Jury Duty Junichi!
Lots of folks liked MF MrZ…..it was kind of unique for the area….just a tiny structure amid all the high rises.
