San Diego’s Balboa Park is home to a number of museums. I spent part of an afternoon looking at vintage vehicles. The current exhibit was JAPANESE STEEL, A collection of classic Japanese vehicles.
San Diego
San Diego is beautiful. Without a doubt. The beach (from the pier) is everything you’d expect from a Southern California beach. I didn’t take a lot of pictures because I’m just not a beach/water guy. Everybody said I had to see La Jolla (about a $40 Uber ride from my hotel) and watched the tourists and the seals frolic. Spectacular view and even better, no doubt, at sunset.

Nothing says safari like a spare on the bonnet. Probably won’t leave it there. Couple of other options. Does look sorta bad-ass.
