Red Bull Air Races







Between the Roxy Women's Surf competition, the Local Indian Cultural Event, Street scene, and the air races we could hardly decide what to do this weekend. So Nick decided for us, he loves anything that flies in the sky so it was off to the races. So we drove over to Coronado Island and picked a spot directly in front of the track. We had to get there 3 hours early to find parking and get a good spot. It paid off though, we had chairs, umbrellas, coolers, and even brought the grill. The race kicked off by Navy seals jumping into the water from helicopter and then getting picked up by another helicopter, way cool. The race is a single plane flying through a course of pylons, 250 mph, 15 feet off the water. If they hit a pylon it deflates, and adds seconds to the pilots time. It was a blast.

La Jolla Cove












What a beautiful place! We went to see sea lions and leopard sharks but all we saw were the sea lions. But there were lots of people snorkeling and in kayaks. I would love to go snorkeling, they have an underwater park in La Jolla Cove where you can snorkel and see all kinds of wild life. We also went to the fishing pier in Ocean Beach. It is quite a walk down the pier, we got some great pictures and saw lots of surfers. We also got some really great pictures of the sunset!
