It was a shame we didn't see more of him - but between his plans and ours they didn't always match up!

George's is one of the most popular restaurants in La Jolla- sorry you had some hassle getting your table at first, but glad you enjoyed your meal. George's has one of the best views anywhere!
I can tell you what that green box is that has the poem all over it. It's a call box that is unlocked during the summer months, so people can call the lifeguards if there's an emergency. But, there is more to it- the box is also a tribute and memorial to a well-known local bodysurfer named David Freeman, who drowned off that part of the coast where the box is located, back in the 90's.

Thanks for that - it is so interesting to know the history behind it, though sad too.

The weather was just amazing - we were so lucky! We said the same two years ago when we were in Florida at Christmas! Seems we chose the right coast this year!

I love seeing the wildlife! I always manage to walk a lot on holidays - shame I can't manage it on a working day!
