San Diego Festival of Sails (September 3, 2011) San Diego, California USA
We spent the day in San Diego thoroughly enjoying the Festival of Sails.
This man is preparing the gorgeous red sails for our 3 hour journey on the water.
This is a view from where my husband and I were sitting on the 'American Pride.'
The sails are going up one by one!
We had a great time with a 'cannon battle' against this ship!
Downtown San Diego is in the background.
A smaller sailboat also graces lovely red sails!
Bringing down the sails!
I think it takes very brave people to be WAY up there!

A nice day in San Diego!
We were walking to the pier at Imperial Beach when I spotted this umbrella.
I can't resist a colorful beach umbrella...ever!

Click on photos to enlarge!
These doggies participated in the 'doggie surfing' competition in San Diego on Saturday, June 4, 2011.
This little lady is Kalani.
She had a nice long ride!
This is Louie!
He made me laugh!
Gotta LOVE that face!
This is Louie's friend...can't remember his name...
This guy was trained to push his own surf board out until he was deep enough to hop on...perfection!
...a flawless performance...!!!

The Sunset Cliffs in San Diego (Point Loma) are a lovely place to spend some time walking along the bluffs at eye level with the Pelicans!
The weather was WONDERFUL on this very recent day!
Apparently LOVE is in the air too...not just pelicans!

I like this whimsical Sea Dragon at Seaport Village in San Diego, CA.
I like this whimsical Sea Dragon at Seaport Village in San Diego, CA.
He's perched along the waterfront and displays some real attitude!
I had fun photographing him from different perspectives and magically turning him to black and white (in my previous post).
Sunday Stills
The theme is metal.

The Weekend in Black and White / Sea Dragon
This sea dragon is actually very colorful against an intense blue sky.
He is along the waterfront in San Diego near Seaport Village.
I think he looks a little devilish in black and white.

Weekend Reflections / Chase's Reflections in the Train Window
These are collages of my 3 year old grandson's reflections in the window of the train we took to spend the day in San Diego, CA USA
He loved looking out the window especially when another train passed in the opposite direction.
He also loved seeing the ocean and people on the beaches along the way.
hosted by James...thank you James!

That's My World Tuesday / Torrey Pines, San Diego...Gliders Over the Pacific
Click on photos to enlarge!
It's so cool to have them flying right over our heads!

Wow, I love this!
We watched from several places along the bluffs.
A moment without a glider in sight, but the view is towards the beach community of La Jolla at the end of the peninsula.
Cool Wind Sock!
