After our outing at the USS Midway we drove across a super long bridge to Coronado Island. We heard that Hell Week might be going on at the naval base near the beach we wanted to visit.
Things were hopping at the beach. We couldn't see anything happening at the base, but we did see
several different aircrafts fly overhead. Some flew surprisingly low, which was kind of awesome.
We had to get some sun on our last full day of vacation, right? We stayed until we got hungry. Then we were off to explore Coronado Island and all its cute little shops.
Also, since we were in California I had to get my In-n-Out Burger fix and this definitely hit the spot.
Among other activities our hotel also had a nightly cruise around the bay. We hopped onto the cruise just before the sun was setting and the evening couldn't have been more perfect.
From afar we could see Mission Beach and the old roller coaster at
Belmont Park.
This is the view as we headed back to the hotel.
We cruised around for a couple rounds listening to the live musician and drinking fruity, girly drinks. Okay, maybe I had the girly drink and my Lutheran Stud had a beer. :)
There's something calming about being at sea when the evening is quiet. It's refreshing and the perfect way to wrap up our time in San Diego. We don't have plans to return at the moment, but I think it will rate high on our list when we plan another trip.
