Our stay in San Diego had come to an end ... and so Jacob and I decided to go on a date.
We first went to eat carne asada tacos, again. This time I did eat a couple and they were so good. After we ate we drove to Imperial Beach. This beach is the closest to us but I don't favor it much. First, because this area wasn't always a good area but now over the years the city has really cleaned up this beach town and made the surrounding area very inviting and pretty. I was very shocked to see how nice it is here now. The second reason why I don't like coming here is that more likely than not I will run into someone I know. What I want is to relax and enjoy the view with my husband and not to have to be social with people that are no longer part of my life.
This is why we came here just before sunset. I wanted to see the sunset over San Diego one last time before we left.
We walked for a bit and came across this new statue. It definitely wasn't here when I lived here. It sure makes for a nice focal point.
I wish I could have been able to fit in this pretty flower on the ground. It reminded me of the flower from Tangled. I also like the backrest on the bench. Made out of clear blue glass. Nice.
We took in the view and filled our lungs with sea air. I love that smell. I spotted an old couple holding hands walking along the boardwalk. I always take pleasure in seeing old couples loving on each other because that's how I see myself with Jacob thirty/forty years from now. So sweet!
After we left the beach we stopped by a store to pick up some mexican bread, pan dulce. If I ever get fat and dumpy it will be for my love of pastries, chips and salsa/guacamole/dip ... and nachos and pizza.
It was definitely sad to leave my parents and my hometown. I love San Diego so much but I just don't feel comfortable being around the South Bay area anymore. The only area that we would live is North of Poway. If it is in God's will then I'm sure he will open doors for us to move back but for now I am content to live where I live. San Diego and Seattle are very comparable. They are both gorgeous and what one lacks the other makes up for it. At least the weather in Washington is ideal the majority of the time. A lot fresher and more rain than San Diego gets. But still, my heart will always be in San Diego.
Ready for our next adventure.
