Crossing Bridges

There's something about a bridge that entices you to look and to cross, even if it takes you out of your way. I've come across a number of pedestrian bridges in and around the downtown San Diego area and farther afield.

Craftsman Adventure in La Jolla – The Lodge at Torrey Pines

Since I missed visiting the Gamble House Sunday, why not visit a craftsman Orchid in La Jolla? The Lodge at Torrey Pines in La Jolla, which opened in 2002, has received numerous awards, including the Grand Orchid for Outstanding Architecture, Landscape Architecture, Interior Design and Lighting by the San Diego Architecture Foundation.

(Almost) 24 Hours in LA

Do you read travel magazine itineraries for cities you plan to visit? You know, the articles that are based on your travel interests (i.e., sports, culture, food) that suggest what to see and do if you have x number of days? I like to read them because I’m curious. I sometimes follow up on recommendations, but mostly make it up as I go.
