1. We drove down and visited the old mission San Juan Capistrano. You know, where the swallows return to every March. Very interesting history.
2. Lunch at Norte (formerly known as Fidel's) in Carlsbad. I met Fidel in February when I was here to officiate at his sister's funeral. Been to the eatery in the past and it is for sure one of the best Mexican restaurants ever. Today Richard's cousin Richard (Fidel's son) was there and spent a few minutes with him. I got the crab burrito. Best of all, the meal was on the house!
3. Waded in the Pacific. The restaurant is just a block from the beach, so we walked down (literally in CA) to the ocean. Amazingly enough I estimated the water temp to be about 70F. That's toasty for the left coast. Too bad we weren't dressed for a swim.
4. Out for "Taco Tuesday" at Fresca's in Anaheim for dollar tacos later this evening. Can you imagine how much chips and salsa I've consumed in the past 6 days? Better yet, don't try to imagine how much frijoles refritos I've put away. It's scary.
On the plane early in the AM from LAX. Hope they've gotten the flight plans glitch from today fixed, because we're supposed to connect in ATL. Could be a long day.
Humid NC, here we come. Wonder how much Gwyneth has grown since we've been gone?

Sounds like you had a great time while you here in Cali. And yes, the water temperature has been really warm lately. It's been running around 72-76 degrees. Some days the ocean temperature is actually warmer than air temperature. Glad you got to dip your toes in!
Then I get back home today and Nate tells me the water temp here was 84!!! Wow.
