San Diego


I really wanted to get a short day trip in while in Palm Desert. Dad, Brooke and I took off this morning for Carlsbad and San Diego. At Carlsbad we visited The Flower Fields and had a great time viewing the colorful fields of ranunculus.


Brooke sits and examines some blooms.


Rows and rows of bright beautiful colors!


We made sure that Brooke got her favorite physical activity in... walking!


We got to ride on the tractor ride! It was fun to bounce behind and look at all the beautiful fields. Brooke got a little fussy at the end of the ride, probably because of the loud noise and heat.


After visiting the flower fields we drove down to San Diego to spend the rest of our day at the Balboa Park. There were four or five museums that were free admission. This made it great to make a quick walk through and not worry about "getting your money's worth".

We loved the cacti garden. It was huge and there were so many neat varieties of plants.
