It's way too early to be this smileyIf anyone knows me at all I have to be everywhere EARLY. So we left Marietta about 7Am for a 9AM flight. Good thing we did, because everyone in the state must have been on Spring Break. It was crazy.
Leaving on a Jet plane. Sarah was a bit nervous, she had never flown on any airline except Delta (her mom works for Delta). After the initial takeoff, she settled in quite nicely.
We loved our hotel room. It was the hotel Solmar located in the Gaslamp district of San Diego. It was right next to Petco field and across from the convention center. I'd recommend it to anyone wanting to get away from the big hotel chains.
The hotel gives you complimentary zebra and tiger print robes to wear
Loved this statue.This was right on the bay, close to the the cruise ships and homeless people
On the Ferry to Coronado(In my other life, I would live on Coronado Island and take the Ferry in to San Diego to my ultra cool office overlooking the San Diego bay.)
Biking on Coronado Island.Sarah got a flat tire and we got a heck of deal on the bike rentals
Boat Drinks at the Hotel Del Coronado
In front of the Hotel Del Coronado
Pacific Ocean.It was very cold that day, so we just walked around and played in the sand
Captain Suzy will be piloting your boat today.

Next trip I am Kayaking. These folks were out there with all the big ships.
Last day....San Diego State University.
We had a really fun trip to San Diego for my meeting this year. We stayed long enough to have a good time but not get too bored. Suzy and I were in our "must see everything" mode, so we got up early and stayed out late exploring the city. I can now confidently say I know how to use the rail system. The food was excellent, I really enjoyed my Lobster burrito at the Rocking Baja Lobster, and my coconut covered french toast at the beach restaurant. The bike riding was great, the cruisers were so much more comfortable than a normal bike. The houses on Coronado were so beautiful, the residents walk or ride their bikes everywhere. I had a huge case of the "I wants" on the island.

My conference went well and Suzy & Sarah had such fun hanging out. Next year, the conference is in New Orleans. Suzy is already begging to go
