IN & AROUND
We spent four days in San Diego. We got there Thursday and left Monday morning. We rented a little condo on the Isthmus of Mission Bay - Mission Beach. The width was litterally two small blocks. We could go left and walk a little block to the beach or to the right and walk a little block to the bay. It was pretty cool. Down the street was the grocery store where we bought food for the time we would be there. It is called Raulph's and has an underground parking garage. This is because there is like absolutely no parking anywhere! There is an escalator that takes you in and out of the garage to the store. The carts have these little things next to the wheels that fit into the grooves on the vender belt of the escalator to keep it from running away or dragging you down. I made Dom take his time so I could hurry to the bottom to document it. The lady who we rented from co-owns a restaurant with her son called the Firehouse. She gave us a $25 dollar gift card to use. We decided we would use it to eat out once and from the looks of it... I was like um, we can go somewhere else...well this was my reaction because it looked like up scale and I was like uh, can I wear flip flops inside?! Needless to say they have a downstairs with a small bar and booths for a more quiet dinner or you have the "outside" which is upstairs on a huge deck with a canopy and lights and fire warmers. There was a second bar upstairs and lots of people who were just having a good time. Very laid back and great service - not to mention the absolutely mouth watering food! It was definitely worth it and we both were glad we decided to go there. The prices were reasonable too and they were having $3.00 a pop for all their beers.
