May 15 & 16, 2009 ~ We celebrated our Anniversary weekend with an outing to Cabrillo National Monument at Pt. Loma on Saturday. We stopped off at the tidepools on our way to the monument.
Since Rodney was just a month out from his knee surgery and didn't yet have his knee brace, he played it smart and didn't get too close to the edge.
I can't say the same for me!! I enjoyed working my way down to the water's edge! It turned out to be high tide, so I didn't have too far to go. High tide also covered all the little pools in which to find fascinating creatures. Maybe another visit!
But, we did get to see something you don't see everyday---a group of bi-planes!!

The Coast Guard lighthouse and grounds
Check out the view of the bay from the monument!!
And we got to see a submarine being escorted into the bay! The yellow and red boat on the far side is a tug boat. The Harbor Patrol boat (on this side) is making sure all those sailboats and fishing boats move out of the way of the sub.
On Sunday, we went to a Champagne Brunch at the 94th Aero Squadron.
It is a replica of a WWI French farmhouse with military memorabilia including the Red Baron plane!
It is not only a feast for the stomach, but a feast for the eyes with the lovely setting!!
It was truly a celebration weekend!
